The Tipping Point
Over the past day or three I have been reading Malcolm Gladwell’s bestseller, The Tipping Point. I would review it in minute detail, except for the fact that Shana has yet to read it and I don’t want to spoil her enjoyment by giving too much away. So if you’ve already read it, you’ll know what it’s all about. And if you haven’t…
Well, if you haven’t read the book, all I can tell you is that it is about the triggers that cause ideas, products or even habits (like smoking, for example) to go from being minority interests to being embraced by the mainstream. The Tipping Point is a really absorbing read, with lots of fascinating insights into human nature.
Judged by Malcolm Gladwell’s criteria, The Frumplingtons still has a way to go before we reach our own tipping point. This bit may puzzle Shana, but if you’ve read the book you will understand perfectly when I say We need a maven and we need one now!
