Book Review – David and Goliath

David and Goliath: Underdogs, Misfits, and the Art of Battling Giants
by Malcolm Gladwell, 2013

After listening to this book, I checked some of the reviews. I should have done it in the opposite order. Not Gladwell’s best stuff. I feel like a lot of the message was anecdotal, and it missed the opportunity to be widely applicable. I expected some references to startups having advantages over slow-moving established companies, but the topic was largely focused on social issues. The re-telling of David and Goliath, alluded to in the title, was certainly worthwhile, and recommended if you haven’t seen it before.
