Malcolm Gladwell is the author of six New York Times bestsellers—The Tipping Point, Blink, Outliers, What the Dog Saw, David and Goliath, and Talking to Strangers. He has been named one of the 100 most influential people by TIME magazine and one of the Foreign Policy's Top Global Thinkers.

Gladwell's work has explored how ideas spread, decision making, and the roots of success. In David and Goliath, he examines the advantages of disadvantages, arguing that we have underestimated the value of adversity and over-estimated the value of privilege.

Malcolm is also the host of a 10-part podcast, Revisionist History where he re-examines an overlooked or mis-understood aspect of past events.

He has won a national magazine award and been honored by the American Psychological Society and the American Sociological Society.
