  • Description

    Quiet is a book full of impressionable stories of real people. The book shows how much we undervalue introverts and take them for granted, and in the process we turn out to be the ultimate losers.

    Summary

    In the book, Susan takes the reader’s on a journey from Dale Carnegie’s birthplace to a seminar by Tony Robbins. She very effectively maps the rise of the Extrovert Ideal and seeks out far reaching results. Susan Cain goes by step forward in the book by talking to Asian-American students and how they feel left out at school. She dwells deeper into the topic by drawing on cutting edge research in psychology and neuroscience to show the vast differences between introverts and extroverts. This book can be most inspiring as she introduces the readers to some very successful introverts, a record-breaking salesman, a witty public speaker. She also advises her readers how to better deal with an introverted child.

    I appreciate silence!

    I loved this book! It's all about introverts in a culture that celebrates extroversion. We have a personality worshiping culture and the new social media has only made it worse. Everyone on Facebook is a performer. Despite 1/3 to 1/2 of the population being introverts, everything in our culture from parenting to school to work to socializing celebrates and rewards extroversion. Some of the most creative and brilliant creators and thinkers in history were introverts. The theme of this work is ...

    Amazing book!

    This is one of the best books that I've read, and hats off to Susan Cain for this amazing work. The book talks talks about introversion in detail and the various behaviors and tendencies of introverts and what they seek. Susan, herself an introvert, is able to easily put the reader at ease, especially an introverted one. Quiet talks about the role an introvert can play in a world that is increasingly tending to overvalue to extroverted ideals, and this is why the book is extremely relevant. E...

    Masterpiece on this subject: Kudos to the author

    First of all I would like to salute the author for the kind of research she has done to come up with such a masterpiece. Not only she has provided enough research references to make her point but at the same time she has taken care that the message is being delivered to the readers without writing anything wrong about being extroverts/introverts.. She has handled the subject very beautifully and has explained both temperaments the best way..

    One thing I want to clarify is that the book is no...

    Helps to realize the power of being Quiet!

    On reading this book I did not find whether it favors Introverts or criticizes the Extroverts. It basically talks about the strength of the quite character which is generally misunderstood or side lined by the dominant extrovert characters in the society. Through various examples, especially the first one, it compels the reader to understand the power of the quite person through few but very strong words of expression. For me this book is more accurate one to use my quietness in a more approp...

    I Love Susan Cain

    Now unfortunately Susan is quite elder to me (merely 27 years old) and happily married. Psst! BANG! I love her because I am a 19 year old and she has helped me to realize who I am, just like millions of us, the introverts.

    Okay, now for the sake of being unbiased as this is a review, let's talk business. Quiet is a non-fiction book focusing on how the mankind inadvertently (or maybe advertently) discriminates the introverts. Susan has carefully researched introversion and extroversion, touri...
