I just finished Malcolm Gladwell's latest book, Blink, a book about the automatic, subconscious analyses that take place in the first few seconds of doing just about anything (things like meeting people, eating, playing sports, looking at art, avoiding obstacles while driving, etc.).

I have been a long time admirer of Malcom Gladwell from his numerous articles in New Yorker over the years, and I thoroughly enjoyed his book The Tipping Point, thus it should come as no surprise that I enjoyed this book as well. It certainly isn't comparable to "Tipping Point", and in particular it seems to lack a unifying theme to tie everything together, but it certainly is an enjoyable romp through assorted psychological studies that help to unravel our minds.
