Gladwell, Malcolm, 1963-. Fora de série : outliers. Rio de Janeiro : Sextante, 2008.
O que torna algumas pessoas capazes de atingir um sucesso tão extraordinário e peculiar a ponto de serem chamadas de "fora de série"? Costumamos acreditar que trajetórias excepcionais, como a dos gênios que revolucionam o mundo dos negócios, das artes, das ciências e dos esportes, devem-se unicamente ao talento. Mas neste livro você verá que o universo das personalidades brilhantes esconde uma lógica muito mais fascinante e complexa do que aparenta. Baseando-se na história de celebridades como Bill Gates, os Beatles e Mozart, Malcolm Gladwell mostra que ninguém "se faz sozinho". Todos os que se destacam por uma atuação fenomenal são, invariavelmente, pessoas que se beneficiaram de oportunidades incríveis, vantagens ocultas e heranças culturais. Tiveram a chance de aprender, trabalhar duro e interagir com o mundo de uma forma singular. Esses são os indivíduos fora de série - os outliers.
