Outliers

Someone recommended me to read: 'Outliers' by Malcolm Gladwell.

I haven't yet.

But I was reading about it.

"Outlier" is a scientific term to describe things or phenomena that lie outside normal experience. In the summer, in Paris, we expect most days to be somewhere between warm and very hot. But imagine if you had a day in the middle of August where the temperature fell below freezing. That day would be outlier.

So we all know what an Outlier is.

In this book I'm interested in people who are outliers—in men and women who, for one reason or another, are so accomplished and so extraordinary and so outside of ordinary experience that they are as puzzling to the rest of us as a cold day in August.

Sounds good doesn't it?
