How Children Succeed: Grit, Curiosity, and the Hidden Power of Character by Paul Tough

5.0

What a great conversation starter! Tough covers case studies and larger groups of research on what it takes for people to succeed in various aspects of life. Most of this ends up focusing on the education system and how those in extreme poverty are have an especially hard time succeeding.

I could go on about my take on the story Tough tells, but I think that's just proof of how engaging the whole thing is.
