THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS I'VE EVER READ! Period. The cover's loud proclamation that the book was filled with "Aha Moments" is no joke! For me, the introvert, I now have a better understanding of what it means to be an introvert and how being an introvert effects every aspect of my life. It's all about energy -- introverts need to conserve energy while extroverts need to expend energy. Even our brains are wired differently. I couldn't believe some of the examples in the book. In one, the author stated that introverts have the tendency to dread returning merchandise. I've never understood why I absolutely hate the act, but now I do (you'll have to read the book to find out! :-). I highly recommend this for all introverts, so they can better understand themselves better and know that they aren't weird -- they are actually quite normal in this extroverted world. I also highly recommend that extroverts read this to better understand their introverted friends and better manage their expectations of their introverted friends. I would give this ten stars if I could!...less
