Malcolm Gladwell
From the bestselling author of The Bomber Mafia: discover Malcolm Gladwell's breakthrough debut and explore the science behind viral trends in business, marketing, and human behavior.
The tipping point is that magic moment when an idea, trend, or social behavior crosses a threshold, tips, and spreads like wildfire. Just as a single sick person can start an epidemic of the flu, so too can a small but precisely targeted push cause a fashion trend, the popularity of a new product, or a drop in the crime rate. This widely acclaimed bestseller, in which Malcolm Gladwell explores and brilliantly illuminates the tipping point phenomenon, is already changing the way people throughout the world think about selling products and disseminating ideas.
“A wonderful page-turner about a fascinating idea that should affect the way every thinking person looks at the world.” —Michael Lewis

Reseñas editoriales
Why we think it's Essential: Like the best social dynamics professor you never had, Malcolm Gladwell deconstructs a wide range of phenomena (from the reduction of crime in New York to the rise of Sesame Street) to deliver a fascinating understanding of how "social epidemics" spread. And while author/narrators are often a mixed blessing, Gladwell is so friendly and well-paced that I was actually disappointed when The Tipping Point was over. - Ed Walloga
Reseñas de la Crítica
"History takes on a whole new perspective as he describes events of early America that specifically follow his theories of 'selling the public on an idea' and 'social epidemics.' Feedback from market mavericks further substantiates Gladwell's viewpoints." (AudioFile)
"Gladwell, a New Yorker staff writer, offers an incisive and piquant theory of social dynamics that is bound to provoke a paradigm shift in our understanding of mass behavioral change." (Booklist)
"Hip and hopeful, The Tipping Point is like the idea it describes: concise, elegant, but packed with social power. A book for anyone who cares about how society works and how we can make it better." (George Stephanopoulos)

What did you like best about The Tipping Point? What did you like least?
The story behind "Sesame Street" and "Blue's Clues" was interesting. The stories about the suicide rates in Micronesia and smoking & children were presented with limited data and advocacy for restricting freedom. Mr. Gladwell's presentation of the data regarding the suicides in Micronesia is simplistic and very surface level with no real concern or dive into other stressors for the spike in teenagers taking their own lives. Mr. Gladwell pins most of the blame on fantastical and magical reasons for kids killing themselves; more than likely this does not really explain the increase. As for the smoking section, he casually passes over the addictive quality of smoking and spends most of his time discussing one study of mice and how they theorize their genetic make up is the primary reason for if and how much nicotine they ingest. And to conclude that section, he subtlety advocates for telling private businesses (tobacco in this case) how much nicotine should be placed in their products to mitigate any potential for kids to become addicted to the product. All this based on one study with mice.Would you recommend The Tipping Point to your friends? Why or why not?
No. I know this book came out some time ago and it was wildly successful. I really didn't see how this book became so popular. My guess would be it's popularity among those with limited experience in the psychology and behavioral health fields. The data presented are limited and should be scrutinized closely if you choose to read this book.What three words best describe Malcolm Gladwell’s performance?
Love his voice.Who do you think would benefit most from listening to The Tipping Point?
Those who would like to improve their critical thinking skills.Any additional comments?
I was extremely disappointed as I've heard and seen Malcolm Gladwell speak in other venues. He's brilliant and engaging. I was just disappointed when I finally got around to this book.Selective data with a push for limits on freedom
