Another fascinating book from Gladwell on what we can learn from statistics. He presents the information in a readable and interesting fashion. This time his focus is on the factors that go into success which often have to do with time, place and culture as much as with ability. His examples run from sports figures to captains of industry to the Beatles.
The section on pilots was very timely as I was reading it while the search goes on for the Malaysian flight that has disappeared.
