A Best Book of the Year: The Financial Times, Bloomberg, Chicago Tribune, and Detroit Free PresMalcolm Gladwell, host of the podcast Revisionist History and author of the #1 New York Times bestseller Outliers, offers a powerful examination of our interactions with strangers -- and why they often go wrong.
How did Fidel Castro fool the CIA for a generation? Why did Neville Chamberlain think he could trust Adolf Hitler? Why are campus sexual assaults on the rise? Do television sitcoms teach us something about the way we relate to each other that isn't true?
While tackling these questions, Malcolm Gladwell was not solely writing a book for the page. He was also producing for the ear. In the audiobook version of Talking to Strangers, you'll hear the voices of people he interviewed--scientists, criminologists, military psychologists. Court transcripts are brought to life with re-enactments. You actually hear the contentious arrest of Sandra Bland by the side of the road in Texas. As Gladwell revisits the deceptions of Bernie Madoff, the trial of Amanda Knox, and the suicide of Sylvia Plath, you hear directly from many of the players in these real-life tragedies. There's even a theme song - Janelle Monae's "Hell You Talmbout."
Something is very wrong, Gladwell argues, with the tools and strategies we use to make sense of people we don't know. And because we don't know how to talk to strangers, we are inviting conflict and misunderstanding in ways that have a profound effect on our lives and our world.

Great little razor!
Good product! It’s pretty easy to use, it has some heft to it, the blades are sharp, can’t complain especially for the price.

A Quality All-Purpose/Beginner's Razor
Size: 1 Count (Pack of 1), Color: Black Razor
These Zomchi razors tend to have pretty good ratings, but a lot of the reviews and interest in them is from women. As someone who has been shaving with a safety razor for many years now, it's awesome to see women getting into safety razors, but girls shave differently from us guys so I wanted to write a review as a guy.
*I will say it bluntly right here, if you are a guy or girl in the market for a safety razor, or are on the fence about trying one, buy this Zomchi razor right now. You won't regret it, and neither will your wallet.
This razor is great value for money. Beautiful design with nice machining. Construction is very sturdy and even the threads that screw into the head into are top quality. On top of that, the razor has a black coating that will prevent rust later down the road and protect the longevity of the razor.
Shaving my face, this razor gave me a really smooth, close, quick shave with a feather brand blade. I wasn't having to come back and make extra passes. It cut sideburns easily and got the difficult areas other razors tended to nick.
If you try the Zomchi blades it comes with and you don't like them, there are so many other brands available with different characteristics. With the right blade this razor will be amazing for everyone.
-Long story short, if you are looking for a quality razor at an affordable price that simply gets the job done, this is the razor for you.

Beautifully made.
Size: 1 Count (Pack of 1), Color: Fern Green Razor with Stand
If you’re trying to decide, just get this item. It’s sturdy, the color is gorgeous and it’s easy to load the blade. It does come with extras. You can also order large quantities from the company and they have a blade disposal can as well. Such a great design.
