Krátky popis
In the early 1960s scientists at the University of California,
Berkeley set out to establish the key factors affecting health and
longevity. Their results, known as the 'Alameda 7', you already
know: don't smoke, drink in moderation, sleep seven to eight hours
a night, exercise, eat regular meals, maintain a moderate weight,
eat breakfast. Years later, however, the same team discovered an
eighth factor, one that proved more important than all the others:
social connection.When we form meaningful bonds with others, our
wounds heal faster, we shake off infections more quickly and our
blood pressure drops.We are less likely to have Alzheimer's, heart
attacks or strokes. When people feel that they have strong social
support, they perform better on tests of mental focus, memory and
problem solving. Greater connection can fuel creativity, increase
our financial stability and enhance our work productivity.But
making friends can also be daunting.In The Laws of Connection,
David Robson does two important things: he takes us through the
fascinating science behind the effects of social connection and he
unpacks the research that shows that we are all better at being
social than we might think. We meet ideas such as 'the liking gap'
and 'the gratitude gap', learn to recognise 'frenemies' and
discover a powerful conversational strategy known as the
'fast-friends procedure' that promotes instant rapport. Being
social doesn't have to mean having dozens of friends, it can also
mean having one true, deep connection with another person.As Robson
shows, we can all benefit from the laws of connection.
