Revenge of the Tipping Point: Overstories, Superspreaders, and the Rise of Social Engineering by Malcolm Gladwell
In his latest book, Gladwell tells a number of seemingly unconnected stories that all have some unexpected outcomes.

I hope this quick read encourages you to purchase that fine book and that you enjoy it as much as I did.
The 12 Levers: The Complete Psychological Toolkit for Improving Your Life by Spencer Greenberg and Jeremy Stevenson goes beyond things like diet, exercise, and sleep to deal with the psychology of self-help and improvement. If you suffer from negative thoughts that lead to anxiety and depression, this book is for you. Have a copy on hand for yourself, or to give to people you work and live with who might need it.
