Lucid and lyrical, Storr&#8217;s book argues that solitude ranks alongside relationships in its impact on an individual\u2019s well-being and productivity, as well as on society&#8217;s progress and health. Citing numerous examples of brilliant scholars and artists\u2014from Beethoven and Kant to Anne Sexton and Beatrix Potter\u2014he argues that solitary activity is essential not only for geniuses, but often for the average person as well. For nearly three decades, readers have found inspiration and renewal in Storr&#8217;s erudite, compassionate vision of the human experience\u2014and the benefits and joy of solitude.    <\/p>\n<p> Publisher                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 Free Press; Reissue edition (October 3, 2005) <br \/> Language                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 English <br \/> Paperback                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 240 pages <br \/> ISBN-10                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 0743280741 <br \/> ISBN-13                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 978-0743280747 <br \/> Item Weight                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 2.31 pounds <br \/> Dimensions                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 5.5 x 0.6 x 8.44 inches <\/p>\n<div id=\"product-summary\" data-hook=\"cr-insights-widget-summary\" class=\"a-section a-spacing-none\">\n<div class=\"a-section a-spacing-small a-spacing-top-\">\n<h3 data-hook=\"cr-insights-heading-label\" class=\"a-size-base-plus a-color-base a-text-bold\">Customers say<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"a-spacing-small\"><span>Customers find the book wonderful, meaningful, and well-written.
