In our hyper-connected yet increasingly lonely world, journalist Kate Leaver argues that friendship is more than a luxury—it’s a vital remedy for emotional and physical well-being. The Friendship Cure blends investigative journalism, personal memoir, and behavioral science to examine friendship in all its forms: girlfriends, bromances, work pals, online communities, and even difficult relationships

Leaver explores important questions like:

What makes some friendships last a lifetime while others fade?

How do we navigate "breaking up" with toxic friends, make friends as adults, and maintain platonic relationships between men and women?

How can friendship boost longevity, heart health, empathy, and resilience in the face of trauma?

Witty, warm, and deeply insightful, the book draws on conversations with friends, interviews with scientists and psychotherapists, and engaging pop culture examples.

Leaver’s engaging voice makes complex social science feel personal and inspiring—a reminder that investing in friendships can truly transform our lives
