Talking to Strangers: What We Should Know about the People We Don’t Know
Autor Malcolm Gladwellen Limba Engleză Paperback – 29 apr 2020
The routine traffic stop that ends in tragedy. The spy who spends years undetected at the highest levels of the Pentagon. The false conviction of Amanda Knox. Why do we so often get other people wrong? Why is it so hard to detect a lie, read a face or judge a stranger's motives?
Using stories of deceit and fatal errors to cast doubt on our strategies for dealing with the unknown, Malcolm Gladwell takes us on an intellectual adventure into the darker side of human nature, where strangers are never simple and misreading them can have disastrous consequences.

Recenzii
Fascinating. . .you should read the book. . . He's tackling the dark side of human nature - what do we ever know about other people?
Now that practically everybody seems to be spoiling for a fight,I have found Malcolm Gladwell'sTalking to Strangersinvaluable. . . His moral - to approach new people with caution and humility - has become my motto.
Taut, provocative, smart . . .Gladwell'scool, playful intelligencehas made himone of our leading public thinkers
A book examining the ways we misinterpret or fail to communicate with one anothercould not feel more necessary. . .the page-turning urgency of a thriller
Superb writing. Masterful . . .bears all the marks that have made Gladwellone of the most successful non-fiction authors of his generation.
A dazzling book . . .Gladwell is a rock star of nonfiction. . . ideas are slowly revealed until the reader arrives at a conclusion they didn't expect. Gladwell is advancing ideas and, sure, they are all open to challenge . . . but they arestimulating and convincing- andyou won't regret a minuteyou spend mastering them
A wonderful provocationwhich Gladwell delivers like no other, an awakening to just one of the fascinations that lie in ordinary human experience . . . as ever,Gladwell's genius is in the telling.
Malcolm Gladwell made his name bringing intellectual sparkle to everyday subjects, and his new book - about how strangers talk to each other - is no exception.
