Join us for an online discussion with prominent cultural writer and bestselling author David Brooks on his book\, \;How to Know a Per son: The Art of Seeing Others Deeply\, in which he helps us pose esse ntial questions: \;If you want to know a person\, what kind of attenti on should you cast on them? What kind of conversations should you have? Wh at parts of a person&rsquo\;s story should you pay attention to?
\nD riven by his trademark sense of curiosity and determination to grow as a p erson\, Brooks draws from the fields of psychology and neuroscience and th e worlds of theater\, philosophy\, history\, and education to present a we lcoming\, hopeful\, integrated approach to human connection. \;How to Know a Person \;helps readers become more understanding and considerat e toward others\, and to find the joy that comes from being seen. Along th e way it offers a possible remedy for a society that is riven by fragmenta tion\, hostility\, and misperception.
\nThe act of seeing another pe rson\, Brooks argues\, is profoundly creative: How can we look somebody in the eye and see something large in them and\, in turn\, see something lar ger in ourselves? \;How to Know a Person \;is for anyone searching for connection\, and yearning to be understood.
\nRegister now to take part in a riveting and timeless conversation on how to connec t with people from all walks of life\, and why doing so is paramount to ou r individual and communal growth.
