This book is amazing. It took me quite a while to read but this is one book everyone should read. If you work in a business environment, are married, have kids, have friends, etc knowing how introverts and extroverts differ in the way they interact with the world will be invaluable. I recognized so much of myself and my behaviors and enjoyed learning about the science and physiology behind the actions. I will definitely be going back to this book

As an introvert, I found the perspectives and stories in this book interesting, relatable, and sometimes validating. That said, not all of it resonated, and some of it felt overly stereotyped. Overall worth a read.

As a bleeding heart introvert, this book could (almost) not have resonated with me more. I particularly liked Part Four, which built really thorough relationship-, job-, parenting- blueprints off a solid foundation of research and clinical studies explored in the first three parts.
This followed my favorite kind of psychological nonfiction roadmap: affirmation of my lived experience, challenges to what I think I know, exploration of my beliefs and emotions, and introduction to lots of new learnings.

Although the scientific basis was a bit too simplistic, this book did make me think a lot. I recognized myself in a lot of parts and appreciated the overall message to accept who you are, but the book did not address the dimensionality of personality among other things.
