What the dog saw and other adventure stories /
Malcolm Gladwell.
- New York : Back Bay Books/Little, Brown, 2009.
- xx, 503 p.: 17 cm.
Brings together, for the first time, the best of Gladwell`s writing from The New Yorker in the past decade, including: the bittersweet tale of the inventor of the birth control pill; the dazzling inventions of the pasta sauce pioneer Howard Moscowitz; spotlighting Ron Popeil, the king of the American kitchen; and the secrets of Cesar Millan, the "dog whisperer." Gladwell also explores intelligence tests, ethnic profiling and "hindsight bias," and why it was that everyone in Silicon Valley once tripped over themselves to hire the same college graduate.
