A very breezy, chatty and intelligent drive through the delightful Ms. Coren's ongoing poker infatuation (addiction is such an ugly word). Readers of Ms. Coren's previous book "Once More With Feeling" will feel right at home (there are a couple of sideways references in the narrative to that previous adventure). And will likely come away with a similar sneaky feeling that these experiences (Porn! Gambling!) are all some jolly-hockey-sticks outing for a posh public schoolgirl looking to live vicariously through the lower orders.

Malcolm Gladwell is the master of playful yet profound insight. His ability to see underneath the surface of the seemingly mundane taps into a fundamental human impulse: curiosity. From criminology to ketchup, job interviews to dog training, Malcolm Gladwell takes everyday subjects and shows us surprising new ways of looking at them, and the world around us. Are smart people overrated? What can pit bulls teach us about crime? Why are problems like homelessness easier to solve than to manage? How do we hire when we can’t tell who’s right for the job? Gladwell explores the minor geniuses, the underdogs and the overlooked, and reveals how everyone and everything contains an intriguing story. What the Dog Saw is Gladwell at his very best – asking questions and seeking answers in his inimitable style.
