Malcolm Gladwell’s new book 'Talking to Strangers' uses pop culture, scientific studies and international headlines to explore the ways people misjudge one another.

Case studies pulled from international headlines, scientific research and pop culture references are the tools veteran author Malcolm Gladwell uses in his new book “Talking to Strangers,” examining the how and the why people misjudge people they don’t know.

“I took an episode of “Friends” and gave it to someone who is an expert in facial expressions,” Gladwell said. “I had them go through two minutes of this incredibly complex interaction between Joey and Rachel and Monica… what I was trying to do was [determine whether] whenever they feel an emotion inside, is it registered on their face?”

One of the most well-known international criminal investigations was used as a case study for this phenomenon – theKnox was convicted and imprisoned, but eventually acquitted, for the murder and sexual assault of her British roommate Meredith Kercher in the Italian town of Perugia in 2007.
