A review by captainwinter
Talking to Strangers by Malcolm Gladwell

informative slow-paced

2.5

The book made some interesting points and had some good examples, but I don’t think I learned anything new. It’s a lot of “don’t judge a book by it’s cover” and Default-to Truth, and I’m not sure what I just read exactly? Also his generalisations bugged me a bit. It felt a bit ‘well, he couldn’t help raping her, he was drunk’ and ‘he was just doing what he was told, but nah, it wasn’t racism’.
