the tipping point!



finished it today! the last of gladwell's books, well its actually his first, but I read them in reverse order, which I also recommend to do. Mainly because I suppose the writing and ideas are much better presented, in Outliers, so you get a better idea of where hes coming from, and I suppose makes you want to read more of his stuff. The tipping point gets kind of repetitive, but with every repetition is a new idea, allowing you to better understand his point.

Anyways, I fucking love this guy, all his books are must reads for anyone who wants to make change in the world and at the same time, in their own lives.

"In the end, Tipping Points are a reaffirmation of the potential for change and the power of intelligent action. Look at the world around you. It may seem like an immovable, implacable place. It is not. With the slightest push - in just the right place - it can be tipped"

-Malcolm Gladwell

booooooooyaakaa! lets start an epidemic!
