Introverts aren’t shy, quiet creatures that need to stay at home all day – it’s more complicated than that. Where extroverts thrive on social interaction, introverts find it takes a bit of energy to be around other people. When they’re feeling full of social energy it’s fun to socialise; when that social battery is drained, they need to read a book, go for a walk, or conduct some other solitary activity in order to recharge. That’s something that a lot of people don’t understand, but the next time you’re at a conference and you need a break from people, you can spell it out with the aid of this Social Battery (£14.99) by David Capper.
