Book Summary of David and Goliath by Malcolm GladwellAbout | David and Goliath: Underdogs, Misfits and the Art of Battling Giants by Malcolm GladwellAlmost everyone is familiar with the story of David and Goliath, but few people take the time to really think about what this story means. From the surface, it seems to be about a shepherd boy overcoming incredible odds to defeat the giant in his midst. However, a closer look proves that David’s life as a shepherd allowed him to be proficient with a slingshot, which gave him the complete advantage in this fight. David may have seemed to be the underdog—but in reality he was the giant. In this book, Malcolm Gladwell takes back the story of David and Goliath to prove that underdogs do win. A lot. He challenges the way we perceive underdogs and provides ways for us to see how things that appear to be weaknesses can in fact turn into your greatest strengths.Relying on a vast array of scientific studies and personal anecdotes, Malcolm sets up countless battles between underdogs and giants and carefully works through each situation to show the ways that the roles have been reversed in favor of the underdog. His conclusion?
