David and Goliath: Underdogs, Misfits, and the Art of Battling Giants

Overview

Everyone knows the story of David and Goliath. Three thousand years ago on the battlefields of ancient Palestine, a small shepherd boy defeated a mighty warrior with nothing but a stone and a sling. David was an underdog and Goliath was a giant, making David's victory improbable and miraculous because he shouldn't have won... or should he have? Find out in the “David and Goliath” business book!

Malcolm Gladwell, the #1 best-selling author of “The Tipping Point,” “Blink,” “Outliers,” and “What the Dog Saw,” returns with his most provocative book yet. “David and Goliath: Underdogs, Misfits, and the Art of Battling Giants” challenges how we think about disadvantages and obstacles. Gladwell starts by explaining what really happened between the giant and the shepherd boy thousands of years ago. Next he examines Northern Ireland, the minds of civil rights leaders and cancer researchers, murder and the true cost of revenge, as well as the dynamics of both successful and unsuccessful classrooms. He uses these real-world stories to demonstrate how important and beautiful things in the world can arise from adversity and suffering.

Offering a new interpretation of what it means to be discriminated against, cope with a disability, or suffer from a number of apparent setbacks, this best-selling business book draws upon the power of storytelling, history and psychology to reshape the way we think of the world around us. The “David and Goliath” business book is a must-read for anyone who has ever felt like an underdog; a timeless business book for entrepreneurs, startups and small businesses.
