An outlier is someone who demonstrates extraordinary performance. He is someone who we call extremely talented. However, how are outliers born?

In his book Outliers, Malcolm Gladwell takes a closer look at what makes people so successful, and why. In an entertaining and well written way, Outliers explains the relationships between hard work, ambition, passion, and pure luck, using many real-life examples, such as that of Bill Gates. All examples and theories described in the book are the result of extensive research.

For those readers, who want to obtain a greater understanding about what characterizes success, I would greatly recommend Outliers, by Malcolm Gladwell.
