He talks silver-tongue convincingly and one can readily see how he succeeded in becoming The City mover and shaker that he was. At least Anderson seems to be turning the corner with his African philanthropic projects...or at least this makes for good PR. ;-)<br /><br />I was going to pick up the Gladwell book, too, on my last trip to Toronto, (got to support my fellow Canadians!) but I thought it'd be more of a gimmicky read and an effort on the part of his publishers to get Gladwell some midstream buzz while he continues research on his next book. The over looked great though. I'd be curious to know what your thoughts are about it (incidentally, I know so many people who are afraid to go on the record as saying that Gladwell's theories hold water...why is that? :-) ) Hi Marc,
