Revenge of the Tipping Point

by Malcolm Gladwell

Twenty-five years on, Gladwell revisits epidemics with new cases: overstories, superspreaders, the magic third, Harvard's athlete admissions, the opioid crisis. More willing than before to look at the dark uses of tipping points.

Three things you will actually use
