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

4.0

The book is largely about stories of miscommunication. Gladwell did a great job at portraying both sides of the stories, in most cases, questioning what we think we know to be true.

Gladwell didn’t fully convince me of his point, which I will leave out due to spoilers, but it certainly provided some insight into our confirmation biases.

Talking to strangers, Gladwell writes, "requires humility and thoughtfulness and a willingness to look beyond the stranger, and take time and place and context into account."
