Blink is about the first two seconds of looking--the decisive glance that knows in an instant. Gladwell, the best-selling author of The Tipping Point, campaigns for snap judgments and mind reading with a gift for translating research into splendid storytelling. Building his case with scenes from a marriage, heart attack triage, speed dating, choking on the golf course, selling cars, and military maneuvers, he persuades readers to think small and focus on the meaning of ”thin slices” of behavior. The key is to rely on our ”adaptive unconscious”--a 24/7 mental valet--that provides us with instant and sophisticated information to warn of danger, read a stranger, or react to a new idea.
Gladwell includes caveats about leaping to conclusions: marketers can manipulate our first impressions, high arousal moments make us ”mind blind,” focusing on the wrong cue leaves us vulnerable to ”the Warren Harding Effect” (i.e., voting for a handsome but hapless president). In a provocative chapter that exposes the ”dark side of blink,” he illuminates the failure of rapid cognition in the tragic stakeout and murder of Amadou Diallo in the Bronx. He underlines studies about autism, facial reading and cardio uptick to urge training that enhances high-stakes decision-making. In this brilliant, cage-rattling book, one can only wish for a thicker slice of Gladwell's ideas about what Blink Camp might look like. --Barbara Mackoff

評分外国人写书常常陷于两个极端,要么太学术化,看不懂,太多的数据和理论;要么长篇累牍的例子,厚厚一本书下来,其实要说明的观点就那么几个。 《blink》这本书显然就属于后一种类型,这样的书并不难读,很多例子,如果你有兴趣也可以看得津津有味。但从拿到这本书的时候,我就...
