Critics Review

Praise for the works of David BrooksThe Second Mountain“Deeply moving, frequently eloquent and extraordinarily incisive.”—The Washington PostThe Road to Character“David Brooks’s gift—as he might put it in his swift, engaging way—is for making obscure but potent social studies research accessible and even startling.”—The New York Times Book Review“A powerful, haunting book that works its way beneath your skin.”—The Guardian“Original and eye-opening … Brooks is a normative version of Malcolm Gladwell, culling from a wide array of scientists and thinkers to weave an idea bigger than the sum of its parts.”—USA TodayThe Social Animal“Provocative and fascinating … seeks to do nothing less than revolutionize our notions about how we function and conduct our lives.”—The Philadelphia Inquirer“Brooks’s considerable achievement comes in his ability to elevate the unseen aspects of private experience into a vigorous and challenging conversation about what we all share.”—San Francisco Chronicle
