*FROM THE INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF YOU'RE NOT LISTENING


Why do you immediately click with some people while others inexplicably turn you off? Do people emit vibes – good or bad? Is it possible to read a room? Are bad habits contagious?*


The hidden science of why people click, and how this powerful phenomenon shapes our lives.


In Why We Click, bestselling author Kate Murphy explores the science behind the seemingly magical yet science-backed phenomenon that makes us fall into rhythm and find resonance with one another. Murphy reveals how and why we match one another's movements, posture and gestures, and sync up our heart rates, blood pressure, pupil dilation, brainwaves and hormonal activity. This powerful tool shows that emotions, moods and behaviours are all infectious and can profoundly impact our health and wellbeing – for good or bad.


In this enthralling book, discover the superpower of "interpersonal synchrony" and its extraordinary benefits so you can learn how to detect and encourage this phenomenon when beneficial, and "desynchronise" from others when it is not.
