Intuition is not some magical property that arises unbidden from the depths of our mind. It is a product of long hours and intelligent design, of meaningful work environments and particular rules and principles. This book shows us how we can hone our instinctive ability to know in an instant, helping us to bring out the best in our thinking and become better decision-makers in our homes, offices and in everyday life. Just as he did with his revolutionary theory of the tipping point, Gladwell reveals how the power of 'blink' could fundamentally transform our relationships, the way we consume, create and communicate, how we run our businesses and even our societies. You'll never think about thinking in the same way again.

About this product

Product Information

The phenomenal bestseller on the revolutionary power of honing your gut instinct An art expert sees a ten-million-dollar sculpture and instantly spots it's a fake. A marriage analyst knows within minutes whether a couple will stay together. A fire-fighter suddenly senses he has to get out of a blazing building. A speed dater clicks with the right person ... This book is all about those moments when we 'know' something without knowing why. Here Malcolm Gladwell explores the phenomenon of 'blink', showing how a snap judgement can be far more effective than a cautious decision. By trusting your instincts, he reveals, you'll never think about thinking in the same way again.

  • Explains a part of our thinking.

    The content deals with the way our brain comes to quick decisions and opinions. Why the immediate response might be as good or better than after careful consideration. How we function under stress. The sections on facial expressions and police killings are particularly fascinating. I realise how much I depend on appearance to judge people. To like the book you should be interested in psychology. It is not long and it is an easy read.

  • Blink

    Malcolm Gladwell continues to provide informative stimuli. it pinpoints the finer details of life of the things and thoughts we rarely give time to. the thoughts we pass by in milliseconds whilst Gladwell finds how how to deconstruct these and stop them dead in time. enticing and compelling read. 10/10.
