A brilliant new book from the bestselling author of The Tipping Point and Blink Why are people successful? For centuries, humankind has grappled with this question, searching for the secret to accomplishing great things. In this stunning new book, Malcolm Gladwell takes us on an invigorating intellectual journey to show us what makes an extreme overachiever. He reveals that we pay far too much attention to what successful people are like, and too little attention to where successful people are from: their culture, their family, and their generation. Gladwell examines how the careers of Bill Gates and the performance of world-class football players are alike; what top fighter pilots and The Beatles have in common; why so many top lawyers are Jewish; why Asians are good at maths; and why it is correct to say that the mathematician who solved Fermat's Theorem is not a genius. Just as he did in Blink, Gladwell overturns many of our conventional notions and creates an entirely new model for seeing the world. Brilliant and entertaining, this is a landmark work that will simultaneously delight and illuminate.

"Even in fourth grade,middle-class children appeared to be acting on their own behalf to gain advantages.They made special requests of teachers and doctors to adjust procedures to accommodate their desires."

By contrast,the working-class and poor children were characterized by"an emerging sense of distance,distrust,and constraint."They didn't know how to get their way,or how to "customize"--using Lareau's wonderful term--whatever environment they were in,for their best purposes.

Practice isn't the thing you do once you're good.It's the thing you do that makes you good.

There are stories,instead,about people who were given a special opportunity to work really hard and seized it,and who happened to come of age at a time when that extraordinary effort was rewarded by the rest of society.Their success was not just of their own making.It was a product of the world in which they grew up.

Those three things-autonomy,complexity,and a connection between effort and reward-are,most people agree,the three qualities that work has to have if it is to be satisfying.

Hard work is a prison sentense only if it does not have meaning.Once it does,it becomes the kind of thing that makes you grab your wife around the waist and dance a jig.

To Sternberg, practical intelligence includes things like "knowing what to say to whom, knowing when to say it, and knowing how to say to it for maximum effect." It is procedural: it is about knowing how to do something without necessarily knowing why you know it or being able to explain it. It's practical in nature: that is , it's not knowledge for its own sake. It's knowledge that helps you read situations correctly and get what you want. And, critically, it is a kind of intelligence separate from the sort of analytical ability measured by IQ. To use the technical term, general intelligence and practical intelligence are "orthogonal": the presence of one doesn't imply the presence of the other.
