Krátky popis
A practical, heartfelt guide to the art of truly knowing another
person in order to foster deeper connections at home, at work, and
throughout our lives-from the #1 New York Times bestselling author
of The Road to Character and The Second MountainIf you are going to
care for someone, you must first understand them. If you're going
to hire, marry, or befriend someone, you have to be able to see
them. If you are going to work closely with someone, you have to be
able to make them feel recognized and valued.As David Brooks
observes, ",The older I get, the more I come to the certainty that
there is one skill at the center of any healthy family, company,
classroom, community or nation: the ability to see each other, to
know other people, to make them feel valued, heard and
understood.",And yet we humans don't do this well. All around us
are people who feel invisible, unseen, misunderstood. In How to
Know a Person, Brooks sets out to help us to do better, posing
questions that are essential for all of us.If you want to know a
person, what kind of attention should you cast on them? What kind
of conversations should you have? What parts of a person's story
should you pay attention to?Driven by his trademark sense of
curiosity, Brooks draws from the fields of psychology and
neuroscience, and from the worlds of theatre, history, and
education, to present a welcoming, hopeful, integrated approach to
human connection. How to Know a Person helps readers become more
understanding and considerate towards others, it helps readers find
the joy that comes from being seen. Along the way it offers a
possible remedy for a society that is riven by fragmentation,
hostility, and misperception.The act of seeing another person,
Brooks argues, is a profoundly creative act: How can we look
somebody in the eye and see something large in them, and in turn,
see something larger in ourselves? How to Know a Person is for
anyone searching for connection, seeking to understand and yearning
to be understood.
