Description: Hi! You're looking at a SUPERB condition book which is a study of intelligence and ambition in the most "successful" people written by MALCOLM GLADWELL--the book is a STATED FIRST EDITION and Nineteenth Printing and a HARDCOVER with the ORIGINAL DUSTJACKET and is NOT a remainder copy and NOT price-clipped, with the original $27.99 price in the upper corner of the front inner flap. This book is in SUPERB condition and the book has some very sparse underlining, circlings and marginalia on the early pages of the book and very slight shelfwear on the dustjacket but NO other significant imperfections! The book is titled Outliers: The Story of Success and it was written by MALCOLM GLADWELL; it was published by Little, Brown & Company in 2008 and is a STATED 1st EDITION and 19th Printing with a publication line reading 20 19.Malcolm Gladwell takes us on an intellectual journey through the world of "outliers"--the best and the brightest, the most famous and the most successful. He asks the question: what makes high-achievers different?His answer is that we pay too much attention to what successful people are like, and too little attention to where they are from: that is, their culture, their family, their generation, and the idiosyncratic experiences of their upbringing. Along the way he explains the secrets of software billionaires, what it takes to be a great soccer player, why Asians are good at math, what made the Beatles the greatest rock band, and why most of the rest of us are subhuman peons hardly worth bothering with.Brilliant and entertaining, Outliers is a landmark work that will simultaneously delight and illuminate.A fantastic find, and a beautiful copy of this book!Thanks for looking, and good luck if you're bidding!
