Critical Thinking I block

After reading to the end of the section "The Law of the Few," you're aware of Gladwell's central point: that fads are like epidemics; their success can be explained by a set of rules or principles. For this discussion, recall your own experiences with one or more of the types Gladwell identifies: connectors, mavens, and salesmen. Briefly describe an incident with one of these types and the ideas or information with which they "infected" you. Refer to Gladwell's definitions of the type and/or process of transmission.
