THE INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER
'Compelling, haunting, tragic stories . . . resonate long after you put the book down' James McConnachie, Sunday Times Book of the Year
The routine traffic stop that ends in tragedy. The spy who spends years undetected at the highest levels of the Pentagon. The false conviction of Amanda Knox. Why do we so often get other people wrong? Why is it so hard to detect a lie, read a face or judge a stranger's motives?
Using stories of deceit and fatal errors to cast doubt on our strategies for dealing with the unknown, Malcolm Gladwell takes us on an intellectual adventure into the darker side of human nature, where strangers are never simple and misreading them can have disastrous consequences.

Von der hinteren Coverseite
The highly anticipated new book from Malcolm Gladwell, No.1 international bestselling author of The Tipping Point, Blink, Outliers, What the Dog Saw and David and Goliath. In July 2015, a young black woman named Sandra Bland was pulled over for a minor traffic violation in rural Texas. Minutes later she was arrested and jailed. Three days later, she committed suicide in her cell. What went wrong? Talking to Strangers is all about what happens when we encounter people we don't know, why it often goes awry, and what it says about us. How do we make sense of the unfamiliar? Why are we so bad at judging someone, reading a face, or detecting a lie? Why do we so often fail to 'get' other people? Through a series of puzzles, encounters and misunderstandings, from little-known stories to infamous legal cases, Gladwell takes us on a journey through the unexpected. You will read about the spy who spent years undetected at the highest levels of the Pentagon, the man who saw through the fraudster Bernie Madoff, the suicide of the poet Sylvia Plath and the false conviction of Amanda Knox. You will discover that strangers are never simple. No one shows us who we are like Malcolm Gladwell. Here he sets out to understand why we act the way we do, and how we all might know a little more about those we don't.

Zustand: Bueno. : En 'Talking to Strangers', Malcolm Gladwell nos lleva a un viaje intelectual al lado oscuro de la naturaleza humana, explorando por qué a menudo malinterpretamos a los extraños. A través de encuentros históricos, casos legales infames y estudios psicológicos, Gladwell desafía nuestras suposiciones sobre cómo lidiamos con lo desconocido, invitándonos a repensar nuestras estrategias de pensamiento en estos tiempos turbulentos. El autor analiza casos como el de Amanda Knox, o el espía que pasó años en el Pentágono sin ser detectado, para explicar por qué es tan difícil detectar una mentira o juzgar los motivos de un extraño.
