The Village Effect: Why Face-to-face Contact Matters

4.0

About the book

Marrying the findings of the new field of social neuroscience together with gripping human stories, award-winning author and psychologist Susan Pinker explores the impact of face-to-face contact from cradle to grave, from city to Sardinian mountain village, from classroom to workplace, from love to marriage to divorce. Her results are enlightening and enlivening, and they challenge our assumptions. Most of us have left the literal village behind, and don't want to give up our new technologies to go back there.

The message this book delivers is critical to our happiness and well-being... wish that everyone addicted to social media and the internet could read this.
