Synopsis
Why do some people instantly draw you in, while others give you the ick?
In Why We Click, Kate Murphy, author of the international bestseller You’re Not Listening, explores the emerging science and powerful impact of interpersonal synchrony, the most consequential social dynamic that most people have never heard of.
What is interpersonal synchrony?
The seemingly magical ― and now scientifically documented ― tendency of human beings to fall into rhythm and find resonance with one another.
Why We Click will help you discover how to:
- Instantly connect with anyone
- Read the room before anyone else
- Stop negativity from spreading
- Nail first impressions ― every time
- Change the energy of any conversation
- Become naturally magnetic
- Control the vibe you bring into the room
The result?
Emotions, moods, attitudes, and behaviors can be as infectious as any disease ― and just as impactful on our health and well-being. From the bedroom to the boardroom, Murphy shows how our instinct to sync can shape our behavior and how our deepest desires to connect, to click, are so often thwarted in modern life.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Why do you immediately click with some people while others just as inexplicably turn you off? Do people emit vibes? Is it possible to read a room? Are bad habits contagious? Kate Murphy, author of the international bestseller You're Not Listening, answers these and other fascinating questions in Why We Click, the first book that explores the emerging science and outsize impact of interpersonal synchrony, the most consequential social dynamic most people have never heard of. Interpersonal synchrony is the seemingly magical, yet now scientifically documented, tendency of human beings to fall into rhythm and find resonance with one another. Not only do we subconsciously match one another's movements, postures, facial expressions, and gestures; recent breakthroughs in technology have revealed we also sync up our heart rates, blood pressure, brainwaves, pupil dilation, and hormonal activity. The result is that emotions, moods, attitudes, and subsequent behaviors can be as infectious as any disease, and can have just as profound an impact on our health and well-being. Interweaving science, philosophy, literature, history, business management theory, pop-culture, and plenty of relatable, real world examples, Why We Click explains why being "in sync," "in tune," "in step," and "on the same wavelength" are more than just turns of phrase. From the bedroom to the boardroom and beyond, Murphy reveals with characteristic curiosity, concision, and wit how our instinct to sync with others drives much of our behavior and how our deepest desires--to be known, admired, loved, and connected--are so often thwarted in modern life.
