Summary of The Highly Sensitive Person: How to Thrive When the World Overwhelms You by Paul Adams

The Highly Sensitive Person: How to Thrive When the World Overwhelms You by Elaine N. Aron: Conversation Starters

Since its original publication in 1996, Dr. Elaine Aron’s book The Highly Sensitive Person: How to Thrive When the World Overwhelms You have been translated into 18 languages and has helped millions of people around the world. Author Elaine Aron introduced the world to a very distinct personality trait. She claimed that it affects one out of five people in the world. She called this HSP or the Highly Sensitive Person. She described this person as highly sensitive because of his sensitive nervous system. This person is aware of his surroundings and these affect the person at an intensified level. This person’s key quality is his ability to ponder, explore and associate everything that surrounds him. According to Aron, this “sensitivity is anything but a flaw”. In The Highly Sensitive Person, she shifts the perspective on the stereotypes placed on HSPs and helps HSPs themselves to view their personality as an asset, not a liability. 

Counseling and Human Development says that Aron’s book is the first to talk about this personality and help those who have it to “make the most of it.” The New Times says that The Highly Sensitive Person is “a valuable resource.”
