ieva13 's review for:
I think this book is really important! As the title suggests, although being an extrovert is often considered ideal and quieter individuals are made to feel like there's something wrong with them, no single personality type is superior to another. The book is well-researched, and many of the anecdotes about introverts felt relatable.
The author examines various aspects of introversion, including positive traits that are often overlooked, the nature vs. nurture debate, and the historical context of how extroversion became the ideal; the challenges introverts face in school and the workplace and offers suggestions for improvement; and it also explores cultural differences in personality across different countries. It was a bit repetitive at times, but still a great read!
