Blink

I'm looking forward to reading Malcolm Gladwell's latest book, Blink. Gladwell wrote one of my favorites, The Tipping Point, and gave a great talk at last fall's Pop!Tech conference. Wired:

In Blink , author Malcolm Gladwell makes the argument that people frequently make some of their best decisions in mere seconds. We think without thinking, sizing up situations and determining how we feel about someone or something based not on voluminous new information, but rather on our accumulated experiences. And, Gladwell says, that's a good thing.
