This approachable, wide-ranging installment in the Empowering You series presents information and advice about introversion in three sections: basics of introversion, being introverted in an extroverted society, and the pathways to introverted happiness. After defining introversion and exploring how it shapes our relationships, interests, and interactions, Cognevich describes testing and measurement methods and offers a holistic discussion of introversion, including nature versus nurture, motivations, and personality choices. She offers insight on how introverts relate to societal ideals about interactions, ways they form and maintain relationships, and how they prioritize their energy.Throughout, she is sure to emphasize that introversion isn’t a disorder or better or worse than extroversion, and in part 3, she offers advice on developing effective communication and relationship skills that play to introverted personality traits. Quotes from people who identify as introverted close each chapter and offer personal insights into some issues and experiences introverts can face. Containing robust source notes, this will be a useful volume for psychology projects in the school or public library setting.
