When I picked up this book, I was hoping by the end that I would be better equipped to make those “thinking without thinking” sort of judgments more reliably. While there was a lot of interesting and thought provoking stuff in the book, I felt like I missed the “meat” I was after, in that there was no lesson in how to apply everything. Mostly, the book just prompted me to look further into other research, which Gladwell summarized in the book.
