Blink by Malcolm Gladwell

Malcolm Gladwell never fails to create thought-compelling books such as, Tipping Point, David and Goliath, and What the Dog Saw. Blink is a book about quick thinking and snap judgement, or “the power of thinking without thinking.” It contains many stories, just like his other books. He various real life stories and situations to complement the points that he is trying to make. He talks about a person’s ability to spot something instantly using an example of a fake sculpture at a museum. He also backs his claim up with a marriage analyst being able to spot whether a couple will stay together or break up. This book is definitely recommended for the high school especially when it comes to making discussion questions and topics.
