The writing style is compelling but the jury's still out. Although I have a feeling that I won't like it much because he seems to be veering towards justifying rape and racial discrimination through the lens of "the perpetrators didn't know better!" But I'll give this one a chance.

Alamgir Baidya I think I read 3 or 4 Malcolm Gladwell back to back like 7-8yrs back and then somehow lost interest in his writing (can’t remember why). Will read this one.

I actually like his writing style but it all appears pretty pseudosciency/problematic so far. Plus nothing profound, same jinish baar baar bole jachhe. I think I should binge read everything Cal Newport has written instead.
