'This book is a crucial call to arms: in the wake of the pandemic, Hertz argues, governments have an opportunity to rebuild along better lines. Yet I have little confidence that the British government is thinking about the importance of community. If we could issue a reading list to 10 Downing Street, I'd put this book near the top.' - Guardian
Explosive stuff. Timely . . . urgent. - Daily Telegraph
Causing a deserved stir - Financial Times
Professor Noreena Hertz has travelled the world to explore the loneliness epidemic first hand: 'renting a friend' in Japan, visiting co-habitation spaces in Israel and trying a week experienced entirely online. From the spread of social media to the rise of AI, loneliness is a global issue that is affecting both our health and financial security.
In this novel, Hertz takes on a world increasingly dominated by big business and consumerism. The Lonely Century is a bold, game-changing book that has the power to transform how we behave.
