Communication, most notably free speech, is becoming increasingly divisive; one person's right to speak has come into conflict with those seeking to prevent harm. Our tolerance for differing opinions is also narrowing. A \"wrong\" remark or comment, no matter how seemingly innocent, can result in banishment, and contradictory ideas spark hysteria and backlash--what is referred to as \"cancel culture.\" This polarization affects everyone of us--among friends and families, workplaces and communities--and threatens the fabric of society itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn this important and thought-provoking book, Jenara Nerenberg analyzes this phenomenon of \"self-silencing,\" asking potent questions about how harmful groupthink has become accepted. Applying her expertise in journalism, psychology, and public health, she digs deep into urgent problems that are worsening under a culture of self-censorship, including loneliness, isolation, and polarization.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBut there is hope. Nerenberg offers concrete suggestions for how to identify and escape groupthink and transform fear into empathy, allowing space for authentic communication that reduces--rather than causes--harm to others.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jenara Nerenberg\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0063317095\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780063317093\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e HarperOne\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/20\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 304\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.42lbs","brand":"Jenara Nerenberg","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46173205070079,"sku":"9780063317093","price":28.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_fb1b56fe-5947-4c57-9c2b-14a081efb22a.jpg?v=1727180296","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/trust-your-mind-jenara-nerenberg-9780063317093","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
