Malcolm Gladwell, the author of books like Blink and The Tipping Point will soon be releasing his latest book, Outliers: Why Some People Succeed and Some Don’t. The book deals with understanding what makes high-achievers different and how much does their culture, their family, their generation, and the idiosyncratic experiences of their upbringing matter. One of the questions he tackles is why Asians are good at math.
