À propos de ce produit

Product Information

The Buddha. Rene Descartes. Emily Dickinson. Greta Garbo. Bobby Fischer. J. D. Salinger: Loners, all,along with as many as 25 percent of the world's population. Loners keep to themselves, and like it that way. Yet in the press, in films, in folklore, and nearly everywhere one looks, loners are tagged as losers and psychopaths, perverts and pity cases, ogres and mad bombers, elitists and wicked witches. Too often, loners buy into those messages and strive to change, making themselves miserable in the process by hiding their true nature,and hiding from it. Loners as a group deserve to be reassessed,to claim their rightful place, rather than be perceived as damaged goods that need to be "fixed." In Party of One Anneli Rufus - a Prize-winning, critically acclaimed writer with talent to burn - has crafted a morally urgent, historically compelling tour de force,a long-overdue argument in defence of the loner, then and now. Marshalling a polymath's easy erudition to make her case, assembling evidence from every conceivable arena of culture as well as interviews with experts and loners worldwide and her own acutely calibrated analysis, Rufus rebuts the prevailing notion that aloneness is indistinguishable from loneliness, the fallacy that all of those who are alone don't want to be, and wouldn't be, if only they knew how.

If you're a loner, you're not alone
If you’re on the introverted side - if, like me, you enjoy quiet libraries better than crowded parties - it must have happened to you that others have not really understood why. If you’ve turned down a dinner invitation because you preferred an evening at home, you must have been criticized as antisocial. I’m probably not an extreme loner, but my inborn temperament is way out there; it is only thanks to a good degree of conditioning and practice that my behavior - I’ve been told - might even, on occasion, seem that of an extrovert. That’s why I have immensely enjoyed reading Anneli Rufus’s Party of One, a book that (1) confirms that there are others like us out there, (2) makes it clear that such preferences are largely imprinted in our genes, and (3) argues passionately that a loner is ... If you’re on the introverted side - if, like me, you enjoy quiet libraries better than crowded parties - it must have happened to you that others have not really understood why. If you’ve turned down a dinner invitation because you preferred an evening at home, you must have been criticized as antisocial. I’m probably not an extreme loner, but my inborn temperament is way out there; it is only thanks to a good degree of conditioning and practice that my behavior - I’ve been told - might even, on occasion, seem that of an extrovert. That’s why I have immensely enjoyed reading Anneli Rufus’s Party of One, a book that (1) confirms that there are others like us out there, (2) makes it clear that such preferences are largely imprinted in our genes, and (3) argues passionately that a loner is just a loner - not necessarily a sociopath, a pervert, or a serial killer, as lazy media and inaccurate police profiling would have us believe. If you have someone who loves you but doesn’t understand you, give them this book. Author Anneli Rufus, a loner herself, will take them on a rather exhilarating ride through popular culture, movies, advertising, friendship, love and sex, art, literature, religion, sanity, crime, fashion, travel, childhood and more. The lightest chapter is the one on technology, which does not probe all that deeply in the impact that the Web has had in opening up lifestyle choices for loners, but gets one thing absolutely right: “The Internet is, for loners, an absolute and total miracle”. "[...] The keyboard is a forest, is a meadow, is the open sea, a habitable planet, a pot of gold, an island, the palace where the prince is looking for a princess, Shangri-la, the Serengeti, Swedish lessons twenty-four hours a day."

For the eclectic.
If your the type of person that is a little different and don't fit into a preconceived mold. If you find that your like a square peg in a round hole. Than this book is for you. I absolutely loved this book with all my heart. This is one of the few books I've read cover to cover. If you have ever had loner tendencies this book is for you. If you know a loaner and want to understand them this book is for you. I hope that more people read this so that those of us who are a little different will be understood. I felt many times while reading this that Anneli was talking about my experiences on these pages, and that she is one of the few people that really understand the way I think and act.If your the type of person that is a little different and don't fit into a preconceived mold.

Introvert food.
If you're an introvert, you're going to feel such an upsurge of support from even the first few pages of this book, you'll be recommending it just as I do. Extroverts in power love to define introverts as "abnormal" or "damaged" because they imagine themselves the template of what a human should be. Hence the personality test section of your job interview. Are you a thinker? We don't any cogs that can think! Enjoy this conversationally toned morsel of truth and value it for the rarity that it is.If you're an introvert, you're going to feel such an upsurge of support from even the first few pages of this book, you'll be recommending it just as I do.
