I find myself racing to rearrange my face when a friend recommends a Malcolm Gladwell book. Are there good alternatives or step ups from each of them? The Tipping Point -> Complexity (M. Mitchell Waldrop). Blink -> Sources of Power (Gary Klein). Others?

Replying to
David and Goliath -> Man's Search For Meaning (Victor Frankl). I am almost embarrassed to mention Gladwell and Frankl together. Frankl's not a step up, but several levels up. Though Frankl can be read as a spiritual experience, MSFM is also more practical than Gladwell.
