Quiet   The world seems more connected than ever  and yet even before the world went into
lockdown  loneliness was at epidemic levels. But what effect is it having on us  and how can we
treat it - even at a distance? Murthy's prescient book reveals the importance of human
connection  the hidden impact of loneliness on our health  and the social power of community. 
When Obama appointed him Surgeon General of the United States  Dr Vivek Murthy observed the
growing health crisis of isolation first-hand. In this ground-breaking book  he traces the
roots of the problem  and shows how loneliness lies behind some of our greatest personal and
social challenges  from anxiety and depression to addiction and violence. But he also reveals
the cure. His search led him to talk to doctors  scientists  parents and community members
around the world. The solutions are deceptively simple and easily applicable - and the effects
are transformative. And one thing is clear: real human connection is a medical necessity if we
want to stay healthy  emotionally and physically. We can all create it  and benefit from it 
and it is more urgent than ever that we start now.
