Comparing and Contrasting Gladwell from Philosophical readings

There are similar forms that Gladwell well takes on that is philosophical. For example; he takes an event that has had a different outcome and figures out the reasons why for the dramatic change. Gladwell dissects his situations or stories just like any other philosopher would. The two big differences between most philosopher and Malcom Gladwell; is the fact that Gladwell's arguments are done faster and with many smaller bits of information. Philosophers tend to be a little longer in getting to the point but when they do get there, it's a lot clearer. Gladwell likes to just say what he has to say without much explanations and moving on to another point.
