What seems to be a simple story of David, a shepherd boy, who defeats a mighty warrior might put light into misconceptions of strength and weakness, specially when it applies to overcoming obstacles that seem impossible; ex- when startups fight against big corporations.
Malcolm Gladwell goes beyond the story and analyzes the medical implications and military technology at the time, even discussing the 'weapons of the spirit' that comes with faith. In the second video, Malcolm describes what this book meant for him in his journey to rediscover faith.
