This book by Richard Sennett came up once on Diary of a CEO in the episodes we index. That mention was a genuine on-air recommendation, not just a passing reference. The people who brought it up: Robert Greene. Every occurrence below links to the episode page and to the exact second it was said on YouTube.
El autor aborda en este libro la crisis del hombre público, a partir de la falta de equilibrio que existe hoy entre la vida pública y la vida privada. Nos muestra cómo escasean en nuestras vidas los placeres y la ayuda que significa el intercambio con nuestros conciudadanos; cómo el extraño es un ser amenazador; cómo el silencio y la observación son ahora los únicos modos de experimentar la vida pública; y cómo la vida privada se distorsiona a medida que enfocamos toda nuestra atención sobre nosotros mismos.
“I read a book that had a big impact on me many years ago called The Fall of Public Man by Richard Sennett, in which he described cafe life in London”— Robert Greene
