ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

Talking to Strangers by Malcolm Gladwell explores the complexities and misunderstandings that arise when we interact with people we don't know. Through case studies and real-life examples, such as the story of a Cuban spy, the wrongful conviction of Amanda Knox, and the tragic events surrounding Sandra Bland, Gladwell examines how we often fail to interpret the intentions and behaviors of strangers. The book delves into psychological, social, and cultural dynamics, questioning our ability to truly understand others and the consequences of these misjudgments in our personal, legal, and political lives.
