David And Goliath

Three thousand years ago on a battlefield in ancient Palestine, a shepherd
boy felled a mighty warrior with nothing more than a pebble and a sling-and
ever since, the names of David and Goliath have stood for battles between
underdogs and giants. David's victory was improbable and miraculous. He shouldn't
have won. 

Or should he?

In DAVID AND GOLIATH, Malcolm Gladwellchallenges how we think about
obstacles and disadvantages, offering a new interpretation of what it means to
be discriminated against, suffer from a disability, lose a parent, attend a
mediocre school, or endure any number of other apparent setbacks.

In the tradition of Gladwell's previous bestsellers-The Tipping Point, Blink,
Outliers and What the Dog Saw-DAVID AND GOLIATH draws upon
history, psychology and powerful story-telling to reshape the way we think of
the world around us.
