Say Hello to Strangers
Electronic book text
How Small Talk Unlocks Big Things in Work, Love, and Life
In an age when a pandemic has made us even warier of strangers and limited our opportunities to interact with others, when technology reduces the need to talk to fellow humans, when loneliness is a social health crisis, and prejudice and belief polarisation keep people apart, NOT talking to each other can only make things worse.
With scientific evidence and real life stories, pre-eminent researcher and self-confessed introvert Gillian Sandstrom shows readers that talking to strangers can be the source of tiny moments of happiness and lead to life-transforming joy.Buy now!
