Talking to Strangers: What We Should Know about the People We Don't Know by Malcolm Gladwell
3.0
Like all of Gladwell’s books, a fun and interesting read. Full of little anecdotes that are more than suspect and make you wonder what he’s leaving out to make these anecdotes so interesting. Like all pop psychology, it’s neatly packaged and easy to consume.
The most interesting concept in the whole book was that of coupling theory and the impact that time and place has on suicide and also on policing.
Other than that, I’m not sure the thesis of this book really came together into something meaningful and cohesive.
