Discussion of the book "How to Know a Person: The Art of Seeing Others Deeply and Being Deeply Seen" by David BrooksLocation: Library
The book "How to Know a Person" is for anyone "interested in becoming a better friend, partner, colleague, or leader – and ultimately, a better version of yourself," according to one review of the 2017 book. During this 2nd Hour session, we will discuss the book and the lessons we can draw from it. Discussion will be facilitated by Lauren Anzaldo, UUCP Member.
David Brooks is a prominent Canadian-American journalist, cultural commentator, and author, best known as an op-ed columnist for The New York Times and a regular analyst on PBS's NewsHour, recognized as a moderate conservative voice who writes about politics, character, and society. He's authored several best-selling books.
The book review by Medha Khurana continues: "In a world where superficial connections are all too common, 'How to Know a Person' is a refreshing reminder to dig deeper. What I particularly appreciate is how the book balances theory with real-world examples. He doesn't just tell you to be a better listener; he shows you how, with specific techniques you can start using right away. There is so much information in the book. Even if you consider yourself a "people person" already, I guarantee you'll pick up new insights.
"That said, let's be real here - this book isn't a magic wand for instant relationship transformation. Building deep, meaningful connections takes time and effort. What this book offers is a thoughtful guide to help you on that journey."
