Overstories, Superspreaders and the Rise of Social Engineering

One of the great minds of our time – Malcolm Gladwell – follows up his sensational book The Tipping Point by revisiting the subject matter with a modern lens, dissecting what it is that pushes society over the edge, and what role we play in it. Twenty-five years after the publication of his groundbreaking first book, Gladwell returns with a brand new volume that reframes the lessons of The Tipping Point in a startling and revealing light.

Why in the late 1980s and early ’90s did Los Angeles become the bank robbery capital of the world?
What is the Magic Third and what does it have to do with racial equity?
What do big cats and clusters of teen suicide have in common?

These are just some of the questions Malcolm Gladwell addresses in this provocative new work, which revisits the phenomenon of social epidemics and examines the ways in which we have learned to tinker with and shape the spread of ideas, viruses, and trends—sometimes with great success, sometimes with disastrous consequences.

Gladwell shows that—whether in neighborhoods, schools, zoos, or conference rooms—today’s epidemics are turbocharged versions of their earlier counterparts, and we are more tempted than ever to try to manipulate tipping points for our own ends. Yet these efforts often come at a cost, creating difficult tradeoffs and unexpected dilemmas. Above all, we must recognize our responsibility—as individuals and as a society—to take tipping points seriously if we want to change our world for the better. With this thought-provoking new book, his most personal yet, Gladwell gives us the insights we need to meet these challenges in innovative ways.


Twenty-five years after the publication of his groundbreaking first book,

Malcolm Gladwell
returns with a brand new volume that reframes the lessons of The Tipping Point in a startling and revealing light

What does the heartbreaking fate of the cheetah tell us about the way we raise our children?

Why do elite universities care so much about sports?

What is the Magic Third, and what does it mean for racial harmony?

In this provocative new work,

Malcolm Gladwell
returns to the subject of social epidemics and tipping points, this time with the aim of explaining the dark side of contagious phenomena.

Through a series of riveting stories, Gladwell traces the rise of a new and troubling form of social engineering. He takes us to the streets of Los Angeles to meet the world's most successful bank robbers, rediscovers a forgotten television show from the 1970s that changed the world, visits the site of a historic experiment on a tiny cul-de-sac in northern California, and offers an alternate history of two of the biggest epidemics of our day: COVID and the opioid crisis.

Revenge of the Tipping Point is
Gladwell
's most personal book yet.

With his characteristic mix of storytelling and social science, he offers a guide to making sense of the contagions of the modern world. It's time we took tipping points seriously.
