The Tipping Point: How Little Things Can Make a Big Difference, introduces the concept of the “tipping point”. This is a critical juncture when a minor shift can lead to a significant impact on a system.
Gladwell applies this concept to elucidate how ideas, trends, or social behaviors can reach a critical mass, tip, and then spread rapidly, akin to a viral epidemic. He substantiates this phenomenon with a variety of examples, encompassing fashion trends, the rise in popularity of new products, and even fluctuations in crime rates.
