Summary: TIPPING POINT REALLY DEMONSTRATES THE BEAUTY IN SMALL THINGS
Review: I'm not one to hand out 5 Star Ratings as a general rule. A book must move me, educate me, intrigue me or really captivate me in a grand way to grant a 5 Star Review. I spent a great deal of time developing a points rating system to help me accurately and fairly rate both fiction and non-fiction works. "The Tipping Point: How Little Things Can Make a Big Difference", written by Malcolm Gladwell, did all of those things (mentioned above) and more for me. My hope is that you take the time to read this book and to take from it at least a few of the many lessons you are about to learn.

Gladwell, a New Yorker Magazine staff writer, writes a very interesting analysis of how humans behave. You'll quickly learn how even some of the smaller things we do in life can have an impact at a much higher level than we anticipated.

Want to learn how to make a difference or how to create change in this world? Put simply, this book is a great stepping stone in a journey that is both positive and humanity-serving. I remember reading some of the teachings of Mother Theresa and hearing how she, too, believed that small actions, with great love, could lead to enormous change. Gladwell makes us feel that we really DO have a place in this world and we really CAN make an impact-perhaps even at a pandemic level.

I was reminded of so many important points that I'd either forgotten or chose not to utilize in my current lifestyle. After reading this book, cover to cover, 2 times, I reflected and felt that I was already starting to change for the better. The description of the book on Amazon is a good one and serves to give you precisely the amount of information you need to know-without giving away too much of the adventure you will experience on your own.

I'd be more than happy to answer questions and would delight in comments about the book. I hope this review helps you to realize that this person was changed by reading "The Tipping Point", by Malcolm Gladwell. Happy reading to you!

Summary: A Great Insight into Human Behavior
Review: Gladwell opened my eyes to how grassroots campaigns can truly make the difference. To embrace the opportunities presented and not be afraid to take chances.

Gladwell's concepts gave me the courage to write & publish my book "Letters Home" a memoir of sending my son, an infantryman, to war with the 3rd ID in 2003 even though I have little money for a mass marketing effort. The early results of my readers is that the book touches them as few books have - they laugh, they cry and they rejoice with us as a family. The Tipping Point taught me to believe that my book has as good a chance at "tipping" as a book supported by the big publishers and well-known authors.
