In How to Know a Person Brooks explores the essential skill of seeing others deeply and making them feel valued, drawing from various fields to present an integrated approach to human connection. By offering guidance on how to pay attention, engage in meaningful conversations, and understand others’ stories, Brooks helps readers become more understanding and considerate, ultimately finding joy in giving and receiving psychological visibility and potentially remedying a fragmented society.
