The Tipping Point

Summary

The Tipping Point by Malcolm Gladwell shares how small changes can lead to massive shifts in behavior, culture, and business. It introduces key concepts like "The Law of the Few," "The Stickiness Factor," and "The Power of Context" to explain why certain ideas, products, or trends go viral. Through real-world examples—from the rise of funky shoes to the spread of crime reduction strategies—Gladwell breaks down the science behind momentum and influence in an engaging and accessible way.
