Synopsis of Connected: The Surprising Power of Our Social Networks and How They Shape Our Lives

«Connected» is the essay by Nicholas A. Christakis and James H. Fowler, published by Little, Brown and Company in hardcover (352 pages, in English).

The book explains how emotions spread, health habits propagate, and partner choice depends on our networks. A happy neighbor can influence our well-being more than our own partner. Christakis and Fowler question the idea of the isolated individual and propose a new paradigm: our social connections condition us.

Published on September 28, 2009 (ISBN 9780316036146); includes bibliographic references (pages 311-326) and index.

For readers interested in sociology, social psychology, and popular science on human behavior and the influence of personal ties.
