They are the ones who prefer listening to speaking; who innovate and create but dislike self-promotion; who favor working on their own over working in teams. It is to introverts--Rosa Parks, Chopin, Dr. Seuss, Steve Wozniak--that we owe many of the great contributions to society. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn \u003ci\u003eQuiet\u003c\/i\u003e, Susan Cain argues that we dramatically undervalue introverts and shows how much we lose in doing so. She charts the rise of the Extrovert Ideal throughout the twentieth century and explores how deeply it has come to permeate our culture. She also introduces us to successful introverts--from a witty, high-octane public speaker who recharges in solitude after his talks, to a record-breaking salesman who quietly taps into the power of questions. Passionately argued, impeccably researched, and filled with indelible stories of real people, \u003ci\u003eQuiet\u003c\/i\u003e has the power to permanently change how we see introverts and, equally important, how they see themselves. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eNow with Extra Libris material, including a reader's guide and bonus content\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Susan Cain\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0307352153\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780307352156\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Crown Publishing Group (NY)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/29\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 368\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.20w x 1.10d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eNew York Times Book Review\u003c\/i\u003e 03\/10\/2013 pg. 28","brand":"Susan Cain","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44054063218943,"sku":"9780307352156","price":18.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_7d5fa075-65db-4bae-9c15-2139b9d7ad00.jpg?v=1685027785","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/quiet-susan-cain-9780307352156","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
