We have been told that the happiest people are the most sociable. Author Susan Cain says that may be why so many introverts hide from themselves. As a personality trait, she says, introversion is seen as something between a disappointment and a pathology. And that is a perception she is out to change.  Cain talks with us about her new book Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can’t Stop Talking.

Guest: Susan Cain, J.D. (writer; attorney; author of Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can't Stop Talking).

Host: David Inge.

This is a repeat broadcast from Monday, March 12, 2012, 10 AM.
