Beschreibung
We navigate our interactions with strangers according to a host of unwritten rules. But what if the people we meet were not a problem, but a gift? With insights from philosophy, anthropology, history and literature we explore how our traditions of meeting the other can mitigate the issues of our time. It's a timely exploration of a history of welcoming strangers and an antidote to our atomised world. How we find connection in a disconnected world.
