Superstar lawyers and math whizzes and software entrepreneurs appear at
first blush to lie outside ordinary experience. But they don't. They are
products of history and community, of opportunity and legacy. Their
success is not exceptional or mysterious. It is grounded in a web of
advantages and inheritances, some deserved, some not, some earned, some
just plain lucky - but all critical to making them who they are. The
outlier, in the end, is not an outlier at all.
