Perhaps I am "just" an introvert, and not a loner -- the author <i>does</i> say they aren't the same thing -- but I didn't so much care for the tone of this article and thus will probably not read the book. I much prefer Jonathan Raunch's article, "Caring For Your Introvert": <a href="http://www.theatlantic.com/doc/200303/rauch" rel="nofollow">http://www.theatlantic.com/doc/200303/rauch</a>
