                                                                             Outliers



Author: Malolm Gladwell
Pages read: 45

This wek I am reading book Outliers. The book is about that if you do anything 10 years you can become proffesional. There are bunch of stories in my book. One chapter one story. I read three storiees and I am going to summarize what I read.

Introduction is about similat towns in Italy. Towns are only miles apart. Chapter oneis about town Roseto and how he has really bigger population than others. It has many othe life expectancies than others. Basicly that's about first chapter.

Chapter one seeks to answer the question why athletes on elite Canadian teams were all born in the same few months of their birth year. That's because if you are older probably you are stronger. So they wanted to everybody have same strenght.

Finnaly Chapter two is the most interesting chapter. It is about why Bill Gates and Beatles succeeded for the same reason. Gladwell was noting that Mozart and chess grandmaster both succeeded in ten years. 10 years is 10,000 hours. 10,000 is the magic umber of greatness. Basicly this is third chapter.

Quotation of chapter one - One warm, spring day in May 2007, the Nedicine Hat Tigers and the Vancouver Giants met for the Memorial Cup hockey championships in Vancouver, British Columbia.

Quotation of chapter two - The University of Michigan opened its new Computer Center in 1971, ina a brand-new building on Beal Avenue ina Ann Arbor, with beige-brick exterior walls and a dark-glass front.

Quotation for introduction - Roseto Valfortore lies one hundred miles southeast of rome in the Appennine foothills of the Italian province of Foggia.
