Description:"A blazingly smart, funny, thoughtful, and moving book about the endless hope—and the occasional limits—of human transformation."Elizabeth Gilbert, author of Eat, Pray, Love and All the Way to the River From renowned journalist and New York Times bestselling author Benoit Denizet-Lewis comes a provocative exploration of why we change—and why other people’s transformations so often unsettle us.We live in an age obsessed with reinvention: recovery meetings and deconversion blogs, name-change petitions and political conversions, Instagram glow-ups and radical resets. But what does it really mean to shed an old skin during a time of roiling uncertainty?Drawing on deeply reported stories and his own reckoning with reinvention, Denizet-Lewis introduces a vivid cast of people in flux—psychedelic seekers, sexual and gender transitioners, ideological shapeshifters, seemingly reformed murderers, and even an octogenarian grandmother determined to change her temperament. Along the way, he explores the psychologists, neuroscientists, and self-appointed engineers of change—and asks what actually makes transformation stick. You’ve Changed is for anyone who’s tried to become someone new, fix what felt broken, or wondered whether real transformation is possible at all. By turns searching, skeptical, and humane, the book argues that meaningful change can happen—but rarely in the ways we expect, and often with complications we can't fully anticipate.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
