Strange contagion
inside the surprising science of infectious behaviors and viral emotions and what they tell us about ourselves
Explores the phenomenom of social contagion by examining the conditions under which five Palo Alto, California, high school students died by suicide in a six month period by stepping in front of an oncoming train; unlocks the mystery of how ideas spread and why they take hold; and offers thoughts on our responsibility to one another.
