If you want to know a person\, what kind o f attention should you cast on them? What kind of conversations should you have? What parts of a person&rsquo\;s story should you pay attention to?< /p>\n
Driven by his trademark sense of curiosity and determination to gr ow as a person\, Brooks draws from the fields of psychology and neuroscien ce and the worlds of theater\, philosophy\, history\, and education to pre sent a welcoming\, hopeful\, integrated approach to human connection. \;How to Know a Person \;helps readers become more understanding and c onsiderate toward others\, and to 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.
\nThe act of seeing a nother person\, Brooks argues\, is profoundly creative: How can we look so mebody in the eye and see something large in them and\, in turn\, see some thing larger 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.
