Quiet

Bol

Quiet, the Sunday Times and New York Times bestseller by Susan Cain, will permanently change how we see introverts - and how you see yourself. Our lives are driven by a fact most of us cant name and dont understand: whether were an introvert or an extrovert. This defines who our friends and lovers are, which careers we choose, and whether we blush when were embarrassed. At least a third of us are on the introverted side. Some of the worlds most talented people are introverts. Without them, we wouldnt have the Apple computer, the theory of relativity and Van Goghs 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.
