Made to stick
Mark Twain once observed, "A lie can get halfway around the world before the truth can even get its boots on." His observation rings true: Urban legends, conspiracy theories, and bogus public-health scares circulate effortlessly. Meanwhile, people with important ideas--business people, teachers, politicians, journalists, and others--struggle to make their ideas "stick." Why do some ideas thrive…

The Tipping Point
"New Yorker writer Malcolm Gladwell looks at why major changes in our society so often happen suddenly and unexpectedly.
