Blink: The Power of Thinking Without Thinking by Malcom GladwellI started this book on my retreat last week and finished it on Friday. Gladwell brings up a lot of interesting thoughts about how we make decisions and how we think and discern thoughts in the unconscience part of our brain. If you've ever had a gut feeling about something that's your unconscience talking. He talks about how those gut feelings we have are usually more accurate than the decisions that take hours and hours of contemplation to make.
Malcom Gladwell brings us some very interesting ideas, ideas that are good to think about when it comes to our decision making and why and how we make the decisions we do. My only critisism is that he stirs up a lot of ideas, but doesn't really come to a conclusion about how to apply these principles to our lives and decision making. All in all, it was a good, thought provoking book. Malcom Gladwell is a brilliant man.
