There’s a reason Malcolm Gladwell is such a successful author. He has an eloquence that seems to be beyond most people:
“Duncan Watts is exceedingly clever, and I’ve learned a great deal from his research,” [Gladwell] emailed me. “In the end, though, I suppose that I feel the same ways about his insights as I do about Steve Levitt’s disagreements with me over the causes of the decline in violent crime in the 1990s. I think that all books like The Tipping Point or articles by academics can ever do is uncover a little piece of the bigger picture, and one day—when we put all those pieces together—maybe we’ll have a shot at the truth.”
From Is the Tipping Point Toast?
