Marvellous. The most important book published for a decade
*Sunday Telegraph*
Quiet is a very timely book, and Cain's central thesis is fresh and
important. Maybe the extrovert ideal is no longer as powerful as it
was; perhaps it is time we all stopped to listen to the still,
small voice of calm
*The Sunday Times*
Susan Cain's Quiet has sparked a quiet revolution. In our booming
culture, hers is a still, small voice that punches above its
weight. Perhaps rather than sitting back and asking people to speak
up, managers and company leaders might lean forward and listen
*The Times*
I can't get Quiet out of my head. It is an important book - so
persuasive and timely and heartfelt it should inevitably effect
change in schools and offices
*The Guardian*
A startling, important, and readable page-turner
*Naomi Wolf, author of The Beauty Myth*
