Hello everyone, welcome to a new episode of The Decenter. I'm your host as always, Ricardo Lopes, and today I'm joined by Dr. Sam Carr. He is a reader in the Department of Education at the University of Beth. And today we're talking about his book, All the Lonely People: Conversations on Loneliness.
So Dr. Carr, welcome to the show. It's a pleasure to have you one. Thanks very much, Ricardo, and it's great to be here. So let me start by asking you perhaps the most basic question here.
What is loneliness? What counts as loneliness? Yeah, I think that is a great question. And the thing that I always start with when I'm talking about this issue is What I have learned at least from the many years that I've been researching loneliness is that we think we know what it is, but I don't think we really do.
