Description
Fractured: How We Learn to Live Together is an urgent manifesto for collective healing. By exploring how our societies have become disconnected and the power of shared experiences, Jon Yates reveals surprising truths that will change the way you think about yourself and those around you.
The book tackles a deceptively simple idea: the more time we spend with people unlike ourselves, doing things together, the more understanding, tolerant, and friendly we become. Through fresh analysis and fascinating examples, Yates demonstrates how our societies have become increasingly divided, leading to a loss of connection and community.
Fractured offers an optimistic vision for the future, arguing that the pandemic has created an unprecedented opportunity for us to come together. The book presents a compelling case for forging a new 'Common Life' - a set of shared practices and institutions - that can strengthen the bonds between our societies in all their diversity.
