A Sunday Times and New York Times Bestseller Our
lives are driven by a fact that most of us can't name and don't
understand. It defines who our friends and lovers are, which careers we
choose, and whether we blush when we're embarrassed. That fact is whether we're an introvert or an extrovert. The
introvert/extrovert divide is the most fundamental dimension of
personality. And at least a third of us are on the introverted side.
Some of the world's most talented people are introverts. Without them we
wouldn't have the Apple computer, the theory of relativity and Van
Gogh's sunflowers. Yet extroverts have taken over. Shyness,
sensitivity and seriousness are often seen as being negative. Introverts
feel reproached for being the way they are. In Quiet, Susan Cain
shows how the brain chemistry of introverts and extroverts differs, and
how society misunderstands and undervalues introverts. She gives
introverts the tools to better understand themselves and take full
advantage of their strengths. Passionately argued, superbly
researched, and filled with real stories, Quiet will permanently change
how we see introverts - and how you see yourself...
