Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
A bold, hopeful, and thoughtprovoking account by one of the worlds leading thinkers (The Observer) of how we built a lonely world, how the pandemic accelerated the problem, and what we must do to come together againA compelling vision for how we can bridge our many divides at this time of great change and disruption.Arianna Huffington, founder and CEO of Thrive GlobalAn important new book.The EconomistNEXT BIG IDEA CLUB NOMINEE NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY WIRED (UK) AND THE DAILY TELEGRAPHLoneliness has become the defining condition of the twentyfirst century. It is damaging our health, our wealth, and our happiness and even threatening our democracy. Never has it been more pervasive or more widespread, but never has there been more that we can do about it.Even before a global pandemic introduced us to terms like social distancing, the fabric of community was unraveling and our personal relationships were under threat. And technology isnt the sole culprit. Equally to blame are the dismantling of civic institutions, the radical reorganization of the workplace, the mass migration to cities, and decades of neoliberal policies that have placed selfinterest above the collective good.This is not merely a mental health crisis. Loneliness increases our risk of heart disease, cancer, and dementia. Statistically, its as bad for our health as smoking fifteen cigarettes a day. Its also an economic crisis, costing us billions annually. And its a political crisis, as feelings of marginalization fuel divisiveness and extremism around the world. But its also a crisis we have the power to solve.Combining a decade of research with firsthand reporting, Noreena Hertz takes us from a how to read a face class at an Ivy League university to isolated remote workers in London during lockdown, from renting a friend in Manhattan to nursing home residents knitting bonnets for their robot caregivers in Japan.Offering bold solutions ranging from compassionate AI to innovative models for urban living to new ways of reinvigorating our neighborhoods and reconciling our differences, The Lonely Century offers a hopeful and empowering vision for how to heal our fractured communities and restore connection in our lives.
