-Jeffrey Toobin, author of A Vast Conspiracy: The Real Story of the Sex Scandal that Nearly Brought Down a President
"The Tipping Point is one of those rare books that changes the way you
think about, well, everything. A combination of lucid explanation with
vivid (and often funny) real-world examples, the book sets out to explain
nothing less than why human beings behave the way they do. And,
astonishingly, Malcolm Gladwell had the smarts and panache to pull it
off." --This text refers to the
Hardcover edition.
