Book Description (From the Publisher): In his landmark bestseller The Tipping Point, Malcolm Gladwell redefined how we understand the world around us. Now, in Blink, he revolutionizes the way we understand the world within.
Example Book Reviews Blink presents scientific research in clear and compelling language. Gladwell's curiosity, enthusiasm, and humor permeate the book, and idealistic intellectuals should delight in his call to use "practical problem solving," grounded in our understanding of how our thinking actually works, to address social ills such as racially biased criminal convictions. As a reminder of the frequent flaws of conscious decisions and an introduction to the potential of the brain's unconscious power, this book is highly recommended." -Armchairinterviews.com
BLINK an 'intriguing exploration' of how, at a glance, we can understand the essence of something. --USAToday
