Reviews
"Gladwell uses compelling real-world examples to show the how and why behind our interactions with folks we're trying to understand." -- Rhett Power, Forbes, "As always, with his narrative gift and eye for the telling detail,Gladwell peppers his work with unforgettable facts... He has immense gifts--aprobing, original, questioning mind, an ability to dig up information othershaven't considered and tie it to a broader point. He has a narrative skillnonpareil."-- Stephen Galloway, Hollywood Reporter, "Mr. Gladwell's towering success rests on the moment when the skeptic starts to think that maybe we're wrong about everything and maybe, just maybe, this Gladwell guy is onto something... Talking to Strangers is weightier than his previous titles."-- Amy Chozick, New York Times, "Both fascinating and topical...A thoughtful treatise...Gladwell writes in his signature colorful, fluid, and accessible prose."-- Publishers Weekly, "Engaging...Mr. Gladwell [presents] a mountain of quirky anecdotes andinteresting research about our blunders with strangers, and why we makethem...It's fascinating to peek at these incidents through Mr. Gladwell'spsychological lens."-- Leigh Anne Focareta, Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, "Powerful advice on truly getting toknow others...Gladwell brilliantly argues thatwe should stop assuming, realize no one's transparent and understand thatbehavior is tied to unseen circumstances."-- People, Book of the Week, " Talking to Strangers is a must-read... I love this book... Reading it will actually change not just how you see strangers, but how you look at yourself, the news--the world... Reading this book changed me."-- Oprah Winfrey, O, The Oprah Magazine, " Talking to Strangers is a must-read...I love this book... Reading it will actually change not just how you see strangers, but how you look at yourself, the news--the world...Reading this book changed me."-- Oprah Winfrey, O, The Oprah Magazine, "Inspiring and motivating...Gladwell is a wunderkind and a saint...He takes on racial division, incompatible perspectives, and emotional dissonancewithout ever sounding preaching or proud. The stories make you think."-- John Brandon, Daily Beast, "Gladwell interviews brilliant people, generates powerfulinsights, writes like an angel, and has earned a massive and admiring audience.He has a keen eye and a witty flair and he's one of the best observationalistsof a generation. Gladwell is a big-picture thinker who helps us make sense ofthe human condition."-- Bob Brisco, WebMD Magazine, "Gladwell's case studies are thrilling...Chock-fullof gripping anecdotes from the recent and forgotten past. He uses theseriveting stories to offer up bite-size observations about how we engage withstrangers."-- Maggie Taft, Booklist, "Another Gladwell tour de force...intellectually stimulating...Readers expecting another everything-you-think-you-know-is-wrong page-turner will not be disappointed."-- Kirkus Reviews (starred review), "Gladwell has again delivereda compelling, conversation-starting read...At a time when the world feels intractablypolarized, a book examining the varying ways we misinterpret or fail tocommunicate with one another could not feel more necessary...With a mix ofreporting, research and a deft narrative hand, Gladwell illuminates theseexamples with the page-turning urgency of a paperback thriller."-- Chris Barton, Los Angeles Times

Synopsis
Malcolm Gladwell, host of the podcast Revisionist History and author of the #1 New York Times bestseller Outliers , offers a powerful examination of our interactions with strangers , and why they often go wrong --now with a new afterword by the author. A Best Book of the Year: The Financial Times, Bloomberg, Chicago Tribune, and Detroit Free Press How did Fidel Castro fool the CIA for a generation? Why did Neville Chamberlain think he could trust Adolf Hitler? Why are campus sexual assaults on the rise? Do television sitcoms teach us something about the way we relate to one another that isn't true? Talking to Strangers is a challenging and controversial excursion through history, psychology, and scandals taken straight from the news. In it, Malcolm Gladwell revisits the deceptions of Bernie Madoff, the suicide of Sylvia Plath, and the death of Sandra Bland--throwing our understanding of these and other stories into doubt. Something is very wrong, Gladwell argues, with the tools and strategies we use to make sense of people we don't know, and the resulting conflict and misunderstanding have a profound effect on our lives and our world. Now, with Talking to Strangers , Malcolm Gladwell brings us a gripping guidebook for troubled times.
