Talking to Strangers: What We Should Know about the People We Don't Know by Malcolm Gladwell

1.0

I wanted to enjoy this book but unfortunately, I couldn't. Gladwell used well known examples (Sandra Bland, Amanda Knox, Sylvia Plath etc) to "prove" ambiguous but also obvious points such as, "We think differently when stressed" and "Alchohol affects our judgement".

It felt pretty gross using these tragedies as click bait and blaming the outcomes almost entirely on communication.
