This was not as good as Outliers, though nonetheless entertaining, informative, and delivered in a way is uniquely Gladwell. I felt the formatting was odd, though I see the decisions on formatting likely benefited the flow. Such a wealth of information, abstraction, and conceptual relevance in pursuit of understanding could only have been broken down in so many ways. With that said, it wasn't overly distracting.
I, too, have been judged based on the styling of my hair. That being the last point made, and during the acknowledgements no less, sold me. I was going for three stars until that point. Having shared such an experience, which I happen to have related closely with, brought everything full circle.
