You¿re Not Listening - What You’re Missing and Why It Matters

Listening is the simplest skill we ignore - and the one that changes everything.

In our noisy world, journalist Kate Murphy reminds us that listening is the key to understanding and to deeper connection. Drawing on neuroscience, psychology and interviews with experts - from CIA interrogators to priests and bartenders - she reveals how true listening strengthens relationships, creativity and empathy.

You’re Not Listening is both a practical guide and a cultural critique, showing how rediscovering this neglected skill can transform our communication, our workplaces and our emotional lives. This clear and compassionate life-changing book will transform your conversations forever.
