Of Pretension: How human beings elegantly navigate around the layers of ostentation and sincerity... And how the world is changing

by Shawn powrie

Human interaction. Every day you and I interact with other human beings in countless ways. From the body language of a glance to the verbal communication of our many languages -- we are constantly sending and receiving communication signals. But what layers are there to human communication? How can we tell if people are sincere? Is all lying bad? How much of interaction is simply shaping a particular narrative? What is pretension? Is pretension necessarily a bad thing? This book explores these and other similar topics, as well as describing how the advent of the internet is spawning a new age of straightforwardness and authenticity which is only growing.
