The Tipping Point
How Little Things Can Make a Big Difference
by Malcolm Gladwell
Examines the phenomena of "tipping points", or the moments when an idea, trend, or social behavior crosses a threshold, tips, and spreads like wildfire. Uses examples from the spread of diseases to the popularity of books and TV shows to illustrate how these critical moments shape our world.
