Talking to Strangers by Malcolm Gladwell

  [Negotiation] {#144} #BriefAudioBook - 18 August 2020

overview

Why can’t we tell when  the stranger in front of us is lying to our face? How is it that  meeting a stranger can sometimes make us worse at making sense of that  person than not meeting them? How do we see through the idiosyncrasies  and pass accurate judgment on strangers? Malcolm Gladwell is a staff  writer for “The New Yorker” and was formerly a business and science  reporter at the “Washington Post.” In “Talking to Strangers”, Gladwell  explores different cases of misunderstanding strangers as a result of  some deficiencies in our assessment of these strangers. Then, he  suggests pragmatic ways of guiding against tendencies such as default to  the truth, being holy fools, reading facial expressions wrongly, and  making hasty generalizations.
