Vous vous sentez différent des autres. Vous êtes bousculé par trop d'émotions, trop de pensées, trop de sensations. Vous vous en voulez de ne pas être calme, raisonnable, zen. En réalité, vous avez un don. Apprenez à l'exploiter. Je suis hypersensible et, pour comprendre ce qui m'arrive, j’ai mené une enquête.

Empathy is in short supply. We struggle to understand people who aren’t like us, but find it easy to hate them. Studies show that we are less caring than we were even 30 years ago. In 2006, Barack Obama said that the United States was suffering from an “empathy deficit.” Since then, things seem to have only gotten worse. In this groundbreaking book, Jamil Zaki shares cutting-edge research, including experiments from his own lab, showing that empathy is not a fixed trait - something we’re born with or not - but rather a skill that can be strengthened through effort.

Most of what we know about how ideas spread comes from best-selling authors who give us a compelling picture of a world, in which "influencers" are king, "sticky" ideas "go viral", and good behavior is "nudged" forward. The problem is that the world they describe is a world where information spreads, but beliefs and behaviors stay the same. When it comes to lasting change in what we think or the way we live, the dynamics are different: beliefs and behaviors are not transmitted from person to person in the simple way that a virus is.

Why do three out of four professional football players go bankrupt? How can illiterate jungle dwellers pass a test that tricks Harvard philosophers? And why do billionaires work so hard - only to give their hard-earned money away? When it comes to making decisions, the classic view is that humans are eminently rational. But growing evidence suggests instead that our choices are often irrational, biased, and occasionally even moronic. Which view is right - or is there another possibility?

In The Social Leap, William von Hippel lays out a revolutionary hypothesis, tracing human development through three critical evolutionary inflection points to explain how events in our distant past shape our lives today. From the mundane, such as why we exaggerate, to the surprising, such as why we believe our own lies and why fame and fortune are as likely to bring misery as happiness, the implications are far-reaching and extraordinary.

Prometheus Rising describes the landscape of human evolution and offers the listener an opportunity to become a conscious participant. In an astoundingly useful road map infused with humor and startling insight, Robert Anton Wilson presents the eight circuits of the brain model as an essential guide for the effort to break free of imprinted and programmed behavior. Bob writes, "We are all giants, raised by pygmies, who have learned to walk with a perpetual mental crouch. Unleashing our full stature–our total brain power–is what this book is all about.”

An informative and entertaining account of how actions send signals that shape behaviors and how to design better incentives for better results in our life, our work, and our world.

These days, no one in America feels immune to violence. But now, in this extraordinary, groundbreaking book, the nation's leading expert on predicting violent behavior unlocks the puzzle of human violence and shows that, like every creature on earth, we have within us the ability to predict the harm others might do us and get out of its way. Contrary to popular myth, human violence almost always has a discernible motive and is preceded by clear warning signs.

With unequaled insight and brio, David Brooks, the New York Times columnist and bestselling author of Bobos in Paradise, has long explored and explained the way we live. Now, with the intellectual curiosity and emotional wisdom that make his columns among the most read in the nation, Brooks turns to the building blocks of human flourishing in a multilayered, profoundly illuminating work grounded in everyday life.

In No Hard Feelings, you'll learn how to navigate the emotional minefield that is the modern workplace, and express your feelings and identity at work. After all, the financial success of the 21st century depends on it. Without the ability to communicate and correct stress, we risk burnout. Without emotions, we cannot make decisions, influence others, or be creative. As our jobs become more collaborative, complex, and stressful - as well as the centre of our identities - effectively embracing emotion will only become more important.

Why is Red Bull so popular, though everyone—everyone!—hates the taste? Humans are, in a word, irrational, basing decisions as much on subtle external signals (that little blue can) as on objective qualities (flavor, price, quality). The surrounding world, meanwhile, is irreducibly complex and random. This means future success can’t be projected on any accounting spreadsheet. To strike gold, you must master the dark art and curious science of conjuring irresistible ideas: alchemy.

Deeply revealing and insightful, The Mattering Instinct is a must-listen for those curious about why we seek to matter to ourselves and others—and how this insatiable longing that drives us apart may be the key to finally understanding each other.

Seguro que alguna vez te has preguntado por qué reaccionas de cierta manera ante ciertas personas. Por qué parece que hay tipos de gente que te sacan de quicio solo con existir. Por qué te boicoteas justo cuando las cosas van bien. Por qué eliges sistemáticamente parejas que te hacen sufrir. Por qué te da tanto miedo destacar cuando sabes que tienes talento de sobra.

¿Estás cansado de ser manipulado sin darte cuenta? ¿Alguna vez te has alejado de una conversación preguntándote cómo alguien logró entrar en tu mente? ¿Quieres reconocer y usar los disparadores psicológicos que moldean cada decisión que las personas toman? ¿Qué pasaría si te dijera que el mundo ha estado usando los mismos trucos psicológicos durante más de 2,000 años, todos los días, contigo? Cuando entiendes la persuasión a su nivel más profundo, dejas de ser la marioneta. Te conviertes en quien sostiene las cuerdas.

People don't often get much done on their own, according to social psychologists. Everything we think and say is affected by social signals and how we connect with other people. This point of view doesn't say that free choice isn't important; it just shows how people are connected to each other and to communities in ways that aren't always obvious. Studies of persuasion help us understand how people's ideas change, while studies of social identity help us understand issues of belonging and discrimination. You can utilize social psychology for more than simply schoolwork.

I’ve always believed you don’t need to be psychic to read minds—you just need to pay attention. People reveal themselves every day in ways they don’t even realize. A clipped tone, a hesitant smile, a restless gesture, a word chosen too quickly—these are the cracks in the surface where their true thoughts slip out. Over the years, I’ve learned that the secret to understanding people is noticing those cracks. That’s why I wrote this book: to show you how to tune in to the subtle signals all around you and finally hear the conversations that are happening beneath the words.

For thousands of years, people have argued about whether humanity is selfish or generous, cruel or kind. But recently, our answers have changed. In 1972, half of Americans agreed that most people can be trusted; by 2018, only a third did. Different generations, genders, religions, and political parties can’t seem to agree on anything, except that they all think human virtue is evaporating.
