Malcolm Gladwell

Why are some more successful and some less successful? Extremely successful people are usually told stories about their intelligence and ambition.

In the book Beyond the Average, Malcolm Gladwell shows that the truth about success is quite different - if we want to understand why some people do so well in life, we need to pay attention to what is happening around them, to their family, place or even date of birth. The success story is more complicated and much more interesting than it seems at first. Beyond the Average tells about what the Beatles and Bill Gates have in common, about the extraordinary achievements of Asians in mathematics, about the secret advantages of great athletes, about why all the most powerful New York lawyers have the same professional biography, and about why you have never heard of the smartest man in the world. The life of extraordinary people, whose success exceeds the usual proportions, has its own peculiar and unexpected logic, which Gladwell clearly explains. With the book The Turning Point, Malcolm Gladwell changed our view of the world. After Treptaj, we no longer thought about opinion in the same way. Beyond average will turn our understanding of success upside down. Malcolm Gladwell is a historian, the author of two world bestsellers and a regular writer for The New Yorker magazine.
