Riassunto

The unprecedented access to other humans that technology provides has ironically freed us from engaging with them. Thanks to social media, we can know a campaigning politician s platform; an avid traveler s restaurant recommendations; and the daily emotional fluctuations of our friends without ever even picking up the phone. According to social psychologist Adam Waytz, our increasingly human-free lives come with a serious cost that we ve already begun to pay: the loss of our humanity.Humans have superpowers. More than any other psychological stimulus, our presence can make experiences feel significant, inspire moral behavior, and encourage action. Recent studies suggest that we even have power over mortality the survival rate of individuals with stronger social relationships has been found to be twice as high as those with weak relationships.The Power of HumanThe Power of Human
