The instant New York Times Bestseller
'Dr. Marisa G. Franco and Platonic have been invaluable guides on my journey to nurture and deepen my friendships. Her advice is wise, concrete, and effective ― and my friendships are better for it.'
Glennon Doyle, author of #1 New York Times bestseller Untamed, Founder of Together Rising
When was the last time you put yourself out there to make a new friend? For many of us, the answer is too long ago.
Step forward psychologist and friendship expert Dr Marisa G. Franco, who explains how the undervaluing of friendship in our culture has led to an epidemic of isolation, and what we can do about it.
Using the groundbreaking framework behind attachment theory, Platonic teaches us to identify and understand our individual style – secure, anxious or avoidant – and recognise that how we behave in relationships is the key to unlocking what we’re doing right (and what we could do better) in our friendships. Weaving together cutting-edge research in psychology with interviews, personal stories and practical advice, this book gives us the tools we need to be better friends, and better humans.
‘Reminds us of the importance of platonic love in today’s society - bucking the notion that romantic love trumps everything else in our lives.’
The Wall Street Journal
'A timely, unique guide to approaching friendship, often the profoundest source of connection in your life, with the love (and self-reflection) it deserves.'
