General note THE INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER ***<br/><br/>'Destined to be a classic' Nouriel Roubini<br/><br/>'Brilliant, powerful and hopeful' Philippa Perry<br/><br/>'Explosive, timely and urgent' Daily Telegraph<br/><br/>Even before a global pandemic introduced us to terms like social distancing, loneliness was already becoming the defining condition of the twenty-first century.<br/><br/>But it's also one we have the power to reverse.<br/><br/>Combining a decade of research with first-hand reporting, Noreena Hertz takes us from a 'how to communicate in real life' class for smartphone-addicted university students to bouncy castles at Belgian far-right gatherings, from paying for cuddles in the U.S. to nursing home residents knitting bonnets for their robot caregivers in Japan.<br/><br/>The Lonely Century explores how our increasing dependence on technology, radical changes to the workplace and decades of policies that have placed self-interest above the collective good are damaging our communities and making us more isolated than ever before.<br/><br/>With bold solutions for us as individuals as well as for businesses and governments, Noreena Hertz offers a hopeful and empowering vision for ow to heal our fractured world and come together again.<br/><br/>'If we could issue a reading list to 10 Downing Street, I'd put this book near the top.' Guardian<br/><br/>'Causing a deserved stir' Financial Times<br/><br/>'Revealing, empathetic and timely' Jonathan Freedland<br/><br/>'Read it, then pass it onto a friend.' Charlie Brooker<br/><br/>
