“Newman’s brilliant book is a fun, engaging invitation to see the world afresh. With clarity and wit, it shows how an anthropological sensibility – meeting difference with curiosity rather than judgment – is exactly what we need in a time of disconnection and division.”

– Gwen Burnyeat, University of Edinburgh

“This exceptional book fundamentally shifts how we experience the ordinary. It takes us on a journey of connection with what we thought we knew. This changes everything. Few books so powerfully transform how we perceive the world around us. It is a must read.”

– Steffi Bednarek, Centre for Climate Psychology
