“The issue is not about writing. It’s what you write about”
July 26, 2016
Malcolm Gladwell has written four thought-provoking books on the human condition and related to practical subjects and topics but what has been different about his perspectives is that he has included in the equation a critical eye within a case study approach. And he himself can be topic of discussion, especially with What the Dog Saw and Other Adventures. The book may be a retrospective of his past writings that were published in The New Yorker in 1996 and to 2008. If one has not read or come across any of the articles, they are a very insightful collection.
Gladwell kindly explains in the preface of the book of his purpose for offering readers a glimpse of what he has written in the past decade. And with over 400 pages of enlightening essays in the Gladwell tradition, he takes an idea and he runs with it with a slew of intellectual curiosity that moves into various directions in the process that is not locked into one particular topic; most of what he writes about spans from education, politics, social, economic, cultural, and historical frameworks. But he knows exactly where his thoughts will eventually land with his clear goals explained within the beginning of the book that focuses on: people and their efforts and not necessarily larger than life individuals but the average person that happened to make remarkable results in something they have achieved such as Ron Popeil and his Chop-O-Matic, Devoted to theories, ways of organizing experience, and Predictions we make about people. It is these main factors that relate to understanding outcomes that are not necessarily final in terms of interpretation, and many times before Gladwell has proven that fact in his previous books. And when he probes, he uses a part of his early education and skills as a lawyer and blends it with his journalistic inquiries of critical thinking. All of the chapters show the immense curiosity and a-ha or wait a minute, let me think about that moments. The chapter Something Borrowed is one of several examples, he discusses creativity but makes one question, was the idea original? One of the enticing part of the chapter spoke of memorable classic rock songs from bands such as Led Zeppelin versus a Muddy Water’s song that may have been influenced by lyrics and chords, this topic and another topic in the chapter that held close to home for Gladwell pertaining to the Broadway play “Frozen” and the possibility that the story may have been copied from one of his early articles; purely Gladwell where he has taken what appears to be two completely different topics but he brings them congruently parallel in the conclusion.
What the Dog Saw never disappoints for readers that have grown accustomed to Gladwell’s writings. Two points that one may consider before reading the book, the interesting part about the book is that it provides first-time readers a sample of his writing, and second, it clearly shows how far he has come but continues to move forward in his perspectives that is open to new ideas. But one recommendation, if one has not already read his previous books, it is highly encouraged.

I LOVE Malcolm Gladwell s books, all of them. I am sure I have rated all the others with 5 stars. This one was completely different. Normally, his books follow an interesting, educational, think-outside-the-box, relational, and logical path. This one was different. He is one of my favorite authors of non fiction and read his books not only for the enlightenment factor, but he is also good with stories of the past and historical encounters from his unique viewpoints. I would call this one a “mulligan” but the only one. Any other book he has written I would highly recommend. Sorry Malcolm. I feel bad I could only get to a 3 star with this one.

I like this Gladwell best

The Gladwell I am most interested in is the explorer Gladwell, the Gladwell Who is furiously curious about a topic or a person and just wants to investigate the hell out of it. The Gladwell I am less interested in is the debater Gladwell, the one who wants to make an argument and will sometimes overstep his own logic to make that argument – if you know his Revisionist History podcast, I’m talking about the Gladwell who argues to free Brian Williams, or wants Pat Boone in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.
That Gladwell appears a couple of times in this collection of pieces from The New Yorker, but you will more often see the Explorer, who wants to get at the heart of the success of Ron Popeil, or the body movement of Caesar Millan, even the distinction between panicking and choking. While yes, his argument about the worth of plagiarism reeks a little of that Debater, Gladwell is probably at his finest here in this collection and also feels less dated than his notable books. I was more impressed with this read, now in 2020, than the books that put him on the map, which have ideas that have been processed and run through in so many ways now that show how much he innovated getting prevalent ideas out into the public mind, but still prove much less meaningful now.
