by Susan Cain

Quiet Power & Quiet The Power of Introverts Quiet Power & Quiet The Power of Introverts By Susan Cain 2 Books Collection Quiet Susan Cain sparked a worldwide conversation when she published  The Power of Introverts in a World That Can’t Stop Talking. With her inspiring book, she permanently changed the way we see introverts and the way introverts see themselves. Quiet The Power of Introverts in a World That Can't Stop 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.

If you are an introvert having difficulty in communication or you are dealing with one around you, i do strongly recommend you to read this book. As an introvert i found it very informative. It helped me a lot to make peace with myself first, then to make peace with the people around me.

I found the book insightful with loads of information from different sources. I did find the writing was a bit dry and I finished the book via audiobook which I found more compelling than when I read the physical book. I feel like I did learn a lot about introverts and would recommend this book to anyone.

Manual book for all fellow introverts ;)
This book helps us understand who introverts truly are, contain of useful example / story how to manage the power for good.

Quiet explores how society often values loud, outgoing people more than quiet, thoughtful ones, and why that can be unfair. Susan Cain explains what it really means to be an introvert and shows that introverts can be just as successful and influential as extroverts, even if they lead in quieter ways. The book uses research, real-life examples, and personal stories to explain how schools, workplaces, and culture often push people to speak up more, even when listening and thinking deeply can be just as important. Cain also shows how introverts and extroverts can work better together by understanding each other’s strengths. Overall, Quiet helps readers see that being quiet is not a weakness, but a different and valuable way of interacting with the world, making the book thoughtful, informative, and relatable.

As an introvert living in a loud world, this helped me recognise that there is power in not being the loudest in the room. I always felt odd for preferring smaller gatherings, or for not wanting to be the centre of attention. Reading this helped me feel like it was okay to be quiet.
It gives an insight into what being an introvert means (it's not shy-ness or anxiety) using current scientific understandings of the introversion-extroversion spectrum. Cain also highlights figures from history who were introverted which was an interesting addition, as some of their stories were unknown to me. I definitely feel, as an introvert, this book was speaking to the choir with me, and I do think extroverted people could benefit from reading it.

The book is very good and has a lot of different examples and references, so it is extremely rich. It is absolutely writen from an introvert point of view. So, extroverts reading this book please be aware of that and don't feel left out -> it is ABOUT introversion, not extroversion! :) So, it is an opportunity for you to understand the introvert world and learn more about it. As an introvert myself, I felt seen!

[Aleksandra Petrova · Rating 5 out of 5]

A must-read for every introvert out there. Well-researched, even better presented, it sums up perfectly the struggles as well as solutions and brighter side of being an introvert and having to deal with the extroverted world around us

[Gabby · Rating 2 out of 5]

Felt a little biased. Also had very obvious subtext implying introverts were superior to extroverts.

[Areth · Rating 5 out of 5]

Summarising a bunch of researches, this book satisfies my introvert soul. I now embrace and love myself more than I was.

[Red · Rating 3 out of 5]

Did not finish. I am a big introvert and it is not to support extroverts but the author has a cynical take on them and I would’ve have continued reading the book from where I left if it was something I could ignore, yet I do want to come back to reading it some day when I can accommodate for such absurdity of cynicism I encountered.
