Revenge of the Tipping Point by Malcolm Gladwell

This book’s full title is Revenge of the Tipping Point: Overstories, Superspreaders, and the Rise of Social Engineering. I found this book interesting as I have all of Malcolm Gladwell’s books. I also find his books quite entertaining. In talking to people of what I was reading, some love his books and some hate them. I think people dislike him is because, he may write a great story, but it may not be exactly scientific. You can enjoy reading a book and not believe everything in it.

Malcolm Gladwell has his own site . He is on Twitter.

There is a good and interesting review of this book on The Guardian. Claire Rock on Michigan Daily points out that the book is an interesting read, but if you are looking for scientific answers, you might want to look elsewhere. I think that she is right. The site Kirkus Reviews has a very short interesting take on this book. There is a long but very interesting review on Thor Projects.

Nayeema Raza on Open to Debate interviews Malcolm Gladwell. Politics and Prose supported an interview of Malcolm Gladwell by Steve Inskepp at The George Washington University. The interview starts at 5 minutes in as there is a lot of introductions.

An index of the books I have reviewed are on my website at Books. I have three blogs. The first talks only about specific stocks and is called Investment Talk . The second one contains information on mostly investing and is called Investing Economics Mostly. My last blog is for my book reviews and it is called Non-Fiction Mostly. Follow me on Twitter.
