Ronja von Wurm-Seibel - "Zusammen"

"This book gives courage and is contagious. Together we can tackle the problems of our time - and actually make a difference! A clever, life-affirming guide to finding our way out of permanent crisis," says Carolin Kebekus.

In her book "Zusammen", Ronja von Wurmb-Seibel explains why human connection is more important today than ever before - on an individual level, where good social relationships are a key factor for health and security in old age, but also at the societal level. The paradox of our time: we feel more connected than ever, yet the longing for genuine closeness is growing. This is no accident, but a matter of evolution - people need people.

Ronja von Wurmb-Seibel (born 1986) studied political science in Munich and initially worked as an editor in the politics section of Die Zeit. She became known for her reports from Afghanistan: in 2013, as the only German journalist at the time, she moved to Kabul, lived there for nearly two years, and reported for Die Zeit and other media. Today she works as an author, filmmaker, and speaker. Her book "How We See the World" (2022) was her first SPIEGEL bestseller.
