Books - What Are You Reading / What Do You Recommend?

[Irving]

Some friends were recently making fun of me for only reading fiction novels. I told him to give me some suggestions and both of my friends had read a lot of Gladwell books. So I randomly picked "Blink: The Power of Thinking Without Thinking." by Malcolm Gladwell. I'm only about 25% of the way through it and don't want to make judgement yet.

I've enjoyed the Malcolm Gladwell books I've read. His Revisionist History podcast is interesting as well.

I posted late last night, and only now realized how funny my response was about not wanting to make an early judgement about a book that is all about the power of snap judgments and initial impressions.

I posted late last night, and only now realized how funny my response was about not wanting to make an early judgement about a book that is all about the power of snap judgments and initial impressions.

And yet, a more prudent response than making a quick judgment if the book were about the process of gathering all the available facts first.
