You know you have arrived when your last name becomes an adjective! It is "Gladwellian" to come up with one word descriptions of the latest trends in modern life. Malcolm Galdwell, a staff writer for "The New Yorker" has done it again with his new book "The Outliers." He provides a fascinating look into the many factors that contribute to a person's success. One of these factors is when you were born-- both the month and year can be critical. The author provides many interesting examples and research which supports his theories. A very engaging and informative book which helps debunk the myth of the "self-made man."
