Final Tipping Point project
No need to post to this prompt. Using Gladwell's theory -- and component pieces -- examine a fad around us today, whether behavioral, consumer-oriented, or ideological. Your question at issue: What made this fad "tip"? You should spend some time discussing each of the book's key areas -- Law of the Few, Stickiness factor, and Power of Context -- though most likely, one or two areas may offer more compelling reasons for the tipping. You will write a 2 -3 page essay. Feel free to do research, but be sure to cite any sources you use. Due 1/5.
