A fascinating introduction to the science of connection that will ultimately improve your social life and lead tobetter relationships.In a world where everything seems to transform in a blink, anyone can suddenly find themselves scramblingfor human connection. Someone who has always found it easy to connect can suddenly feel disoriented if theystart a new job, move to a new region, or welcome a new member into the family. Others may have always foundit difficult to connect, feel they've outgrown their circles, or may feel dissatisfied for a range of other reasons.In Our New Social Life, social connection and happiness experts Natalie Kerr and Jaime Kurtz explain thescience behind these struggles and steer us toward timeless skills to overcome these challenges. Unlike muchof the guidance found online, this book is based on decades of research, which the authors make accessibleand useful to the reader, and offers tools for introverts and extraverts alike. Whether the barriers to connectionare a function of modern life--such as being distracted by our devices, feeling overworked, and living far awayfrom loved ones--or are more timeless--such as simply not knowing how to connect, misunderstanding thethoughts and feelings of others, undervaluing moments of solitude, and avoiding the sort of vulnerability thatcreates deep bonds--this book offers hope, encouragement, and relatability to help readers have a richer andmore vibrant social life.
