What Customers Say About The Tipping Point Audio:

From today's NY PostIf the Police Department relaxes its enforcement of petty "quality of life" infractions, it could be a turning point back to the days when murders, muggings and mayhem plagued the city, says a law enforcement expert who played a key role in developing the policy. "You might be pointing to a tipping point," said George Kelling, who helped formulate the "broken windows"; approach to policing that was the model for Mayor Rudolph W. Giuliani's successful zero-tolerance policy. [New York Post]

Seller: good price; book was in excellent condition and arrived quickly.Book: On "The Rachel Maddow Show," the author explained his sociological/philosophical concepts clearly and most interestingly, so I bought this book---and it's written just as clearly and interestingly. The stories, as well as his explanations of events, are fascinating. Now I want to read his other works.

How can a tautology be worth a full book. Is there anything really interesting here.

But there is not much substance. Malcolm Gladwell writes well.

These first ones are by definition a Tipping Point. Sometimes, there is a point in time something changes dramatically.

Sometimes, it doesn't come. Not really.

Pages after pages of blah blah blah.

Obviously I am in the minority here - but I was sorely disappointed in what I read of this book.As a Sociology Major I was excited and all aquiver to read this facinating book. But after the Hush Puppy example in the first few pages of the book I seriously found myself wondering how many examples of the exact same thing I was going to have to read through. I really do admire the authors boundless enthusiasm for this subject matter - well - at least I did for about the first 50 pages.

What an interesting read. I really like it when I come across a book that I can't put down. This is one of those really interesting factual reads that gives societal feedback and maybe something that in turn could help the reader. Highly recommendable.
