ANATOMY of MEDIA Myths. Behaviors. Influence. TIPPING POINT
PHENOMENA This just released, ground-breaking book by Dr. Philip
Gordon, Ph.D details three recent media case studies which were
selected on the basis of common Tipping Point Attributes. Each case
study involved "contagiousness" and "stickiness" during their
development, and each arrived at a "dramatic moment in time," which
can only be characterized by the phenomenon of Tipping Points.
ANATOMY of MEDIA provides a research and academic perspective for
analyzing and predicting media myths, behaviors and influences
relative to global events. Fact-filled and up-to-date commentary,
informative and innovative, and valuable reading for scholars,
researchers and media watchers who want a candid and unique
framework for understanding and interpreting the media revolution
that is going on right now The first case study: "Myths" The 2008
Presidential Campaign of Barack Obama was chosen to examine a
narrower scope and time frame for the application of the tipping
point analysis. In contrast to the second case study: "Behaviors"
The International Financial Crisis of 2007-2010 which involves a
broader study period to identify trends and more complex tipping
point issues. The third study: "Influences" The issue of Climate
Change is included as consideration because the research and
analysis revealed critical relationships between media impact and
global events. The clock is ticking... As the issue of Climate
Change is still evolving, Dr. Gordon provides a methodology and
parameters for analyzing and predicting our planets' most pressing
Media Tipping Points.

Tipping Points as evidenced in global events are, in many ways,
influenced by media. This just released, ground-breaking book by Dr
Philip Gordon, Ph.D details three case studies which were selected
on the basis of common Tipping Point Attributes. Each involved
media contagiousness and stickiness during their development and,
each arrived at a dramatic moment in time, which could be
characterized by the phenomenon of Tipping Points. The first case
study, the 2008 Presidential Campaign of Barack Obama was chosen to
examine a narrower scope and timeframe for the application of the
analysis. In contrast to the second case study, the International
Financial Crisis of 2007-2010, involves a broader study period to
identify trends and more complex issues. The third study, Climate
Change was included as consideration because the research and
analysis revealed critical relationships between Media Impact and
Global Events. Hurricane SANDY: "One Dramatic Moment" A Tipping
Point event that virtually guarantees the 2012 Obama Presidential
Campaign outcome. As the issue of Climate Change is still evolving,
Dr Gordon provides a methodology and parameters for analyzing and
predicting our planets' most pressing Global Tipping Points. Review
Comments: "The genius of the formulation of Tipping Point Theory is
that it takes explicit account of the role of social media and the
internet at facilitating bifurcations and promoting dynamical
instability. In effect, we have trimmed a few feet of tail off the
kite. As a reader, I was informed and educated as to the factors
which conspire to influence stability / instability in complex
social systems. ...the book does a good job of making sense of past
bifurcations and dynamical instabilities, namely political
instability, our perception of global climate change, and
international economic crises...My compliments on a truly
insightful Media Tipping Points." -Prof. Dr.(med.) Peter S.

Monetary Fund ..".very interesting application (of the Tipping
Point Theory)...potential opportunity for predicting other global
events, i.e.: Egyptian crisis and perhaps, even terrorism
activities." -Dr. Adam AJLANI, PhD Professor, Sciences Politic and

innovative approach to modeling three very complex studies for

Emmanuel CAULIER, PhD Professor and Expert: International Political
Relations, Avocat "A truly fascinating book that (teaches) a whole
new way of thinking about major events and how the media can
influence them. - Being a political junkie I was heavily into the
media coverage of the 2008 Obama election and the global financial
melt-down both via TV and the blogosphere...I now find myself
looking for the tipping points and stickiness factors as other key
events unfold. Usually, I have trouble reading, theoretical books
but this one was an easy read and if you want supporting data then
the references are there. This could become a solid reference for
those in the media who truly want to understand what they are
reporting. Highly recommended and I look forward to Dr. Gordon's
ongoing analysis of (future) events." -Dr. Ralph Moorhouse, Ph.D.

On October 28, nine days before the 2012 US presidential elections,
the east coast was devastated by what was termed a "perfect storm,"
Hurricane Sandy. 100] people died, 50 billion USD in damages,
communities destroyed and millions without services...Result: Obama
elected and named TIME Magazine 2012 Person of the Year. As in 2008
(with the International Financial Crisis), Barack Obama again
benefited from the "something else" of global proportions and a
media convulsion that guaranteed his epidemic Tipping Point
victory. Presidential Campaigns are in many ways, influenced by
media. This just released, ground-breaking book by Dr. Philip
Gordon, PhD, details the Obama Presidential Campaign 2007-2008,
which is analyzed on the basis of Tipping Point Theory Attributes
and Characteristics. Dr Gordon provides a methodology and
