Inteligencia intuitiva book pdf by Malcolm Gladwell

Con esta obra, el reconocido escritor Malcolm Gladwell revoluciona la forma en que entendemos nuestro mundo interior. Blink, inglés para parpadeo, es un libro que trata sobre las decisiones que aparentemente realizamos en un instante ?en un abrir y cerrar de ojos?, pero que en realidad no son tan sencillas como parecen. ¿Por qué es que hay personas que tienen la capacidad de tomar siempre decisiones brillantes mientras que otras personas son consistentemente incompetentes en lo que se refiere a la toma de decisiones? ¿Cómo funciona realmente nuestro cerebro? ¿Por qué será que frecuentemente nos es virtualmente imposible explicarle a otros cómo fue que tomamos una decisión tan acertada? ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Bestselling author Malcolm Gladwell revolutionizes the way we understand the world within. Blink is a book about about choices that seem to be made in an instant ?in the blink of an eye? that actually aren't as simple as they seem. Why are some people brilliant decision makers, while others are consistently inept? How do our brains really work? Why are the best decisions often impossible to explain to others?
"En septiembre de 1983, un marchante de arte llamado Gianfranco Becchina se puso en contacto con el Museo J. Paul Getty de California. Decía estar en posesión de una estatua de mármol del siglo VI antes de nuestra era. Se trataba de un kurós, una escultura que representa a un varón joven desnudo, de pie, con la pierna izquierda adelantada y los brazos pegados a los costados. Sólo se conservan alrededor de dos centenares de estas obras, en su mayor parte bastante dañadas o reducidas a fragmentos, descubiertas en tumbas o en yacimientos arqueológicos. Pero éste era un ejemplar conservado casi a la perfección. Superaba los dos metros de altura y tenía una coloración clara resplandeciente que lo diferenciaba de otras piezas antiguas. Se trataba de un descubrimiento extraordinario por el que Becchina pedía algo menos de diez millones de dólares."
