The tipping point is that magic moment when an idea, trend, or social behavior crosses a threshold, tips, and spreads like wildfire. Just as a single sick person can start an epidemic of the flu, so too can a small but precisely targeted push cause a fashion trend, the popularity of a new product, or a drop in the crime rate.
This month, we will be discussing the essay collection "Monsters" by Clare Dederer.
(Copies available at the Central Library)
For July's meeting, we'll be discussing Katherine Dunn's novel Geek Love.
Meeting starts at 6pm at West 6th Brewing!
