How to Know a Person by David Brooks

My rating: 4/5

For this non-fiction guide I think I was expecting lots of questions to ask people to get them to open up, and Brooks certainly includes some of those, but this book is so much bigger than that. Exploring psychology, sociology and anthropology, Brooks delves into what makes a person who they are, and how another person can begin to understand them. Practical for both old friends and that chap you just met on the bus, the stories and anecdotes made this very readable.
