Malcolm Gladwell, who spoke last week in Hobbs as the Jack and Mabel Maddox Distinguished Lecturer and is on Time’s 2005 list of the most 100 influential people, is an exciting and provocative speaker. His curiosity and wit are on par with Albert Einstein’s, and this treasure is available in several bestselling books: The Tipping Point, Blink (my favorite), Outliers (his most popular), What the Dog Saw, and David and Goliath (his best work in his opinion).
