Why do we have so many competing groups in society? How come we spend so much time with people who are similar to us, while avoiding those who are different? In this gripping book, Joshua Krook reveals why divisions form between groups in society, and how those divisions can be torn down. Krook draws on stories of empathy, mutual understanding and research from social psychology to create a startling book that challenges how we live our lives and how we form our friendships. Through practical recommendations, Us vs Them shows that diverse groups can interact with each other and form bonds of mutual empathy and compassion. Every one of us can lead the change expressed in this book, building a happier and more connected world. By bringing people together, we can foster mutual understanding, empathy and in some cases friendship. This may assist in resolving issues of racism, sexism and religious intolerance.
