在这部令人瞩目的新作中,Malcolm Gladwell 带领我们踏上一段智识之旅,走入“outliers”(异类/卓越者)的世界——那些出类拔萃者、最著名与最成功的人。他提出了这样一个问题:是什么让这些高成就者与众不同?他的回答是,我们对成功人士本身的特质关注过多,而对他们的背景关注过少:即他们的文化、家庭、所处时代以及成长过程中的独特经历。在此过程中,他揭示了软件亿万富翁的秘密、成为顶尖足球运动员的必备素质、为什么亚洲人……

Hacker News 上怎么说

  • …大家。我想激发他们的灵感、引发思考。”而且格拉德威尔在尝试各种观点时,很懂得注明出处。任何读过马尔科姆·格拉德威尔书的人(比如我自己读过《异类》(Outliers))都能去查阅引用的来源,并以此为跳板决定再去查什么资料、挖掘什么想法。格拉德威尔并不是在写教科书,但就凭他能挖掘出这些有趣的…

    …people. I want to inspire and provoke them." And Gladwell is good, while trying out ideas, at crediting his sources. Any reader of a Malcolm Gladwell book (as I know, from being a reader of the book Outliers) can check the sources, and decide from there what other sources to check and what other ideas to play with. Gladwell doesn't purport to write textbooks, but I give him a lot of credit for finding interesting…

  • …但他写的故事既有趣又发人深省,讲的都是不同学科里的顶尖科学家面对棘手难题的故事。任何读过马尔科姆·格拉德威尔书的人(比如我自己读过《异类》(Outliers))都可以顺着出处去查,并由此决定再去查阅什么资料、琢磨什么点子。格拉德威尔自始至终没说自己写的是教科书,但我很认可他能挖掘出有趣的…

    …but he writes interesting and thought-provoking stories about leading scientists in disciplines facing tough problems. Any reader of a Malcolm Gladwell book (as I know, from being a reader of the book Outliers ) can check the sources, and decide from there what other sources to check and what other ideas to play with.

  • …如你所说的“极端特例(outlying cases)”。所谓的特例,就是有人能够凭借自己的聪明才智克服所有重重困难,跃升到另一个社会阶层。我现在脑海里浮现出一本很酷的书,叫《异类》(Outliers)。这是一本经典之作,我强烈推荐:http://www.amazon.com/Outliers-Story-Success-Malcolm-Gladwel...

    …"outlying cases" as you call them. The outlying cases are when someone manages to use his/her intelligence to get over all those challenges and switch into a different social class. A cool book called "Outliers" comes to my mind now. It's one of the classics and I highly recommend it: http://www.amazon.com/Outliers-Story-Success-Malcolm-Gladwel...

  • 1. 《思考,快与慢》(Thinking, Fast and Slow)- 卡尼曼 2. 《异类》(Outliers)- 马尔科姆·格拉德威尔 3. 《How to Read and Do Proofs》- Daniel Solow 这些书都干货满满、极富洞见,而且我敢肯定自己将来还会反复重读好几遍。

    1. Thinking fast and slow - Kahneman 2. Outliers - Malcom Gladwell 3. How to read and do proofs - Daniel Solow All of these were packed with great insights and are books I'm sure I will return to in the future for multiple re-reads.

  • …觉得这不太符合 Hacker News 的调性。另外补充一句——我想你这里是把“read”打成“ready”了吧:“尤其是《魔鬼经济学》(Freakonomics)的有声书很棒,因为是作者亲自朗读(read)的,马尔科姆·格拉德威尔的《异类》(Outliers)也是如此。”

    …don't see this as being Hacker News. PS - I think you meant to write "read" instead of "ready" here: "In particular, the Freakonomics audio books are quite good as they are ready by the author, as is Outliers by Malcolm Gladwell."

  • …去改变别人的信仰。我想启发和触动他们。”格拉德威尔很擅长在抛出观点的同时注明信息来源。读过马尔科姆·格拉德威尔书的人(比如我自己读过《异类》(Outliers))都能顺藤摸瓜去查出处,并由此决定再去查什么资料、探讨什么想法。格拉德威尔自始至终没标榜自己写的是教科书,但他能发掘出这么多有趣的…
