    • Loss and impermanence are inescapable, part of the warp and weft of our lives. They are essential to love, to growth, and to art. And yet, too often, we do not acknowledge loss, let alone honour the experience of it. Illuminating, thoughtful, and deeply necessary, Susan Cain's new book will help us to name and value the experience of loss, pointing the way toward ways of being and rituals that help us to accept it rather than bury it. Blending memoir, reportage, and social science, it will reveal that joy and loss exist in equilibrium; that vulnerability, or even a melancholy temperament, can be a strength; and that embracing our inevitable losses makes us more human and more whole.

    • To, že autorčin zájem o téma introverze tak neuvěřitelně zarezonoval, asi vypovídá o trendu naší doby – objevovat sílu v tom, co je (zdánlivě) slabé, a hodnotu v tom, co bylo dříve příliš nenápadné. Miliony lidí tak přijali, že jsou introvertní či plaší, a zjistili, že právě díky těmto vlastnostem jsou dobří posluchači, kteří dovedou navazovat hluboké vztahy. Že jsou v kontaktu se svým vnitřním já. Že zvládnou všechno to, co je běžné pro extraverty, jen si poté musí zalézt někam na klidné místo a načerpat energii. Mnoho lidí Susan Cainové řeklo, že by si bývali rádi její knihu přečetli, když byli děti, dospívali nebo se sami stali rodiči introvertních dětí. A právě pro ně napsala Tichou sílu. Zde se zaměřuje na důležitá témata života dětí a dospívajících (škola, společenský kontakt, koníčky, domov), dává užitečné tipy (jak si uvědomit sílu své povahy, nebo naopak vystoupit z komfortní zóny), dělí se o svůj příběh i výpovědi mnoha introvertních dětí a dospívajících a knihu zakončuje doslovem pro rodiče a učitele. Kniha je určena pro introvertní a plaché děti a dospívající, jejich rodiny a ty, kdo s nimi profesně přicházejí do kontaktu.

      Do you know what Bill Gates, Eleanor Roosevelt, Warren Buffet, and Mahatma Gandhi all have in common? Apart from being iconic leaders, they are all introverts. Although leadership is often associated with bold confidence and charisma, many great leaders are soft spoken, and often shy, deep thinkers. In Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can’t Stop Talking, bestselling author Susan Cain uses historic, neuroscientific and literary evidence to describe how, for over a century, the value of extroverts has been glorified to the detriment of innovation and productivity. Touting the hidden strengths of introverts, Cain posits that revealing the power of quietude will not only free introverts to be themselves, but will contribute to positive advancements in leadership, parenting, intimate partnerships, and the work force. Quiet…in 30 minutes is the essential guide to quickly understanding the introverted personality explored in Susan Cain’s bestselling book, Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can’t Stop Talking. Offering a chapter-by-chapter overview of Cain’s findings on the power of quiet, this concise summary offers insightful knowledge for introverts, their parents, partners, teachers, and employers.

    • "At least one-third of the people we know are introverts. 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. In Quiet, 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, superbly researched, and filled with indelible stories of real people, Quiet has the power to permanently change how we see introverts and, equally important, how they see themselves."-- Fourni par l'éditeur
