<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"A road map for restoring dignity and compassion." --Adam Grant, <em>New York Times</em> best-selling author of <em>Give and Take</em><br /><br /> An urgent yet hopeful analysis of the twenty-first-century surge in dehumanization, and how we can reverse it.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>Everyday life is increasingly human-free, with faceless technology controlling our lives and mediating our interactions with other people--but it doesn't have to be. In <em>The Power of Human</em>, social psychologist Adam Waytz reveals the cost of losing our humanity and shares scientific strategies for counteracting this downward trend, such as promoting variability and social connection at work, addressing power asymmetries in conflict, and forming complementary partnerships with technology. Essential reading for individuals and institutions alike, this book provides unique, evidence-based solutions to the problem of dehumanization to help us to best utilize the influence we have on one another.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>[Adam Waytz] employs copious amounts of scientific, psychological, and corporate research as well as firsthand experience to provide a road map to a more people-friendly world....

Waytz argues that it's a poor choice when we allow present-day forces of separation to take the human from our relationships: the relation gets removed, leaving just the ships, passing at sea.--Robert B. Cialdini, author of Influence and Pre-Suasion<br><br>What does it mean to be human? What does it mean to see others as fully human?
