## Description

Dr. Philip G. Zimbardo's ground-breaking studies have found that there are more than 84 million shy people in America today, including such " secretly shy" celebrities as Carol Burnett, Barbara Walters, and Johnny Carson. In this best-selling book, Dr. Zimbardo analyzes shyness with a personal understanding of the emotions involved. He then presents advice, exercises, and encouragement to help shy people strengthen their social skills and their self-confidence. If you're troubled by shyness, or love someone who is, reading Shyness can open new worlds.
