Quiet:

The Power of Introverts in a World That Can't Stop Talking

by Susan Cain

Living as the silent type in a world that promotes the contrary can not only be inconvenient, it can be downright depressing at times. The world we live in was tailored for extroverts, people who would rather speak than listen. Those who prefer to listen are instead branded as shy and usually cast aside, and end up forcing themselves to act in a way that is contrary to what they really want.

However, as was pointed out by Susan Cain in her book titled Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can't Stop Talking, the truth is that without introverts the world would be deprived of many great inventions, including the theories of gravity, relativity, as well as Google for starters.

Susan Cain’s book is basically one which aims to bring a message to the world that says introverts are needed just as much as extroverts, yet the current social values place extroverts far above introverts.

Cain shares her belief that introverts are often underestimated and remain a source of untapped knowledge that may never be opened due to social prejudice. She takes the time to bring you the stories of a great number of introverts that have truly changed the course of history.

Also, she takes the time to introduce modern-day introverts such as a public speaker and a record-breaking salesman who have found great success. All in all, this book aims to change the way in which introverts are perceived in society, and more importantly, how introverts perceive themselves to be.
