The author has a gift for writing interesting pieces and offering insights about commonplace things. This is a collection of writings from the New Yorker, and covers ketchup (why isn't there a Grey Poupon of ketchup?), criminal profiling (science or an old-time illusion?), and a host of other topics. Gladwell really digs into his subjects, beyond the point where most of us would have lost interest ourselves, and in this book you may learn more about the hawking of kitchen rotisseries than you ever thought possible! If you liked Gladwell's other books, you'll definitely enjoy this one.
