New Book for 2016/2017!


The Algonquin Reads book for 2016/2017 is David and Goliath. You may be familiar with Malcolm Gladwell from his books Outliers and The Tipping Point. His latest book is a fascinating analysis of our perceptions of strength and weakness. He explores the inverted U curve, the trickster hero, and the strategy of the underdog and applies these ideas to education, healthcare, business and a number of other fields. No matter what field you are in, part of this book is for you. Read it this summer, and you’ll be ready to participate in the Algonquin Reads events starting in the fall. It’s available at Connections – The Campus Store for $15.
