Malcolm Gladwell, in his riveting non-fiction book, The Tipping Point, written in 2000, presents
us with astonishing facts that will keep you turning the page and is able to
introduce reasons as to how one thing can cause another, such as a small flame
can ignite an enormous wildfire. There isn't only one cause for epidemics, it
consists of a process involving three points: The Law of the Few, The
Stickiness Factor, and The Power of Context.
Gladwell
chooses to center his main argument around epidemics and how they spread so
quickly. In his book, Gladwell analyzes the society and explains that tipping
points are small causes that influence giant results. His thesis surrounds the
social phenomena of small ideas said by the right people, at the right time can
launch an epidemic outbreak. Malmom Gladwell chooses target marketers as his
audience. The Tipping Point is a
fascinating book that I would recommend for people interested in marketing and
business because learning how to push small things in a certain direction can
get you satisfying results. Malcom Gladwell does an excellent job in keeping
his audience's attention hooked and intrigued. This book deserves a 4 out of 5,
and should be picked up and read by YOU.
