The 14th book I read in 2024 was ‘Revenge of the Tipping Point’ by Malcolm Gladwell. This is his follow-up to the 1999 blockbuster ‘The Tipping Point’. At times it feels like an apology tour and at times it feels like the continuation of brilliant anecdotes that I found incredibly interesting. It is a quick read that is worth reading specially for fans of Gladwell’s narrative style, that is just engaging as it is reductive.

Specially of note is the concept of “overstories,” overarching narratives that shape societal behaviors and beliefs.
