Customer Reviews
Love it!
Malcolm Gladwell is the Bob Ross of complex thought. The beauty of this podcast and his books is not that he wants you to adopt his views, but to learn how to question your own in a healthy manner. My only question: is anyone researching how to recreate a dog’s olfactory capabilities?
Malcolm, Rethink the PSA!!
As an ardent fan and follower of Revisionist History, I was disappointed that Malcolm stated on the RH podcast, The Dog Will See you Now (overall an amazing story), that he would not get a PSA (Prostate Specific Antigen) test for prostate screening. This test, although by no means perfect as Malcom pointed out, has resulted in early detection for prostate cancer and thus saved or extended countless lives from this most common type of cancer in men in the U.S. (other than skin cancer). As a physician and cancer survivor whose prostate cancer was initially detected by a routine screening PSA, I recommend Malcom rethink his stand on this simple and useful screening test. It might save your life!
