Description

By Malcolm Gladwell

Gladwell starts with Sandra Bland, pulled over for a lane change and dead in a jail cell three days later, and works backwards through Chamberlain and Hitler, the Amanda Knox case, Bernie Madoff’s investors and campus sexual assault. His argument is that we are badly built for judging people we do not know: we default to truth, we assume manner reveals character, and we ignore the setting. A book about the cost of those errors.
