Get ready to “Blink” on July 15 at 6:30

Posted on July 6, 2015
We will gather Wednesday July 15 for our discussion of the book “Blink” by Malcolm Gladwell. there is still time to read the book in advance of the session. But you can still come and enjoy even if you have’t read the book. We will have a structured discussion led by Rev Lucy. Hope you can join us. More about the book is below.
Amazon says:
“Blink is a book about how we think without thinking, 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? Why do some people follow their instincts and win, while others end up stumbling into error? How do our brains really work-in the office, in the classroom, in the kitchen, and in the bedroom? And why are the best decisions often those that are impossible to explain to others?”

Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
I have been doing my best to “speed read” this book since Friday – I can just “show up” on Wednesday – OR – do you need to know I am coming?
