Thread: [Books] What are you currently reading?

I was given "the Outliers" as a Christmas/Welcome gift by my aunt and uncle here, and even though I know a few of the points (thanks to Atmosfear) already, it is still a pretty fascinating read. I'm thinking of picking up more books on the same subject by him.

Skip Blink by Gladwell. It's not very well-written and I didn't find it worth my time.

The Tipping Point is really Gladwell's magnum opus and it put him on the map. It isn't perfect (his theory regarding crime, for example, is flawed), but much like Outliers, he has some great ideas.

Someone finally agrees with me.
