Elaine N. Aron
What’s inside
In ‘The Highly Sensitive Person’, Dr. Elaine Aron explores the concept of high sensitivity, a trait found in 15 to 20 percent of the population. Through a mix of research findings and anecdotal evidence, Aron argues that high sensitivity, while often viewed negatively, can actually provide several advantages. Aron helps highly sensitive people understand their trait, cope with overstimulation, and turn their high sensitivity into a strength.
