Hey there /lit/.
I'm going to try to make this as clear as possible.
I'm looking for a book that will make me better understand people. I remember lurking a while ago and someone mentioned a book that "completely changes the way you look at people and conversations". I've only so far read essentials so I'd like to try something new.

The way you better understand people is by being around people.

Every book is life-changing in a minute way if you REALLY read it, OP.
Revolutionary personal growth is the biggest meme in the universe and I'm not one of those people calling everything "memes" and "buzzwords". But, seriously, you identity (and thus also your perception of people and the world) changes at a pace so slow you are bound to perceive it as being always the same (otherwise we wouldn't have the notion of "identity" in the first place). Yet in retrospect it's possible to (hopefully without delusions) see how much you've grown.
Now I'll shut up and let some less theoretical fgts hit you up with some really dank books.
How so? Do you want to be more empathetic or something? Or are you looking to react to social cues better? Or maybe just something into the mechanics of personality?
There is literally a book called "Please Understand Me" that may be helpful if you want to understand what drives people. Uses MBTI.
But at any rate, >>8239589 is right. Any book you read will give you a degree of insight into the mind of the writer if you take the time to understand it. The more books you read (and observe), the more people you will understand.
