The New York Times Bestseller from Surgeon General, Vivek H. Murthy, MD.

"We have a massive, deadly epidemic hidden in plain sight: loneliness. It is as harmful to health as smoking and far more common. And as his gripping stories of the science and suffering make clear, we can do something about it. Together is fascinating, moving, and essential reading."--Atul Gawande, author of Being Mortal

"Together made me rethink much of what I believe about physical health, public policy, and the human condition. By revealing America's epidemic of loneliness--and then offering an array of remedies for the condition--Murthy has done a great service, and made Together the most important book you'll read this year."--Daniel H. Pink, #1 New York Times bestselling author of When and Drive

The book we need NOW to avoid a social recession, Murthy's prescient message is about the importance of human connection, the hidden impact of loneliness on our health, and the social power of community.

Humans are social creatures: In this simple and obvious fact lies both the problem and the solution to the current crisis of loneliness. In his groundbreaking book, the 19th surgeon general of the United States Dr. Vivek Murthy makes a case for the loneliness epidemic as a public health concern: a root cause and contributor to many of the epidemics sweeping the world today from alcohol and drug addiction to violence to depression and anxiety. Loneliness, he argues, is affecting not only our health, but also how our children experience school, how we perform in the workplace, and the sense of division and polarization in our society.

But, at the center of our loneliness is our innate desire to connect. We have evolved to participate in community, to forge lasting bonds with others, to help one another, and to share life experiences. We are, simply, better together.

The lessons in Together on building a more connected life have immediate relevance and application. These four key strategies will help us not only to weather this crisis, but also to heal our social world far into the future.

  1. Spend time each day with those you love. Devote at least 15 minutes each day to connecting with those you most care about.
  2. Focus on each other. Forget about multitasking and give the other person the gift of your full attention, making eye contact, if possible, and genuinely listening.
  3. Embrace solitude. The first step toward building stronger connections with others is to build a stronger connection with oneself. Meditation, prayer, art, music, and time spent outdoors can all be sources of solitary comfort and joy.
  4. Help and be helped. Service is a form of human connection that reminds us of our value and purpose in life. Checking on a neighbor, seeking advice, even just offering a smile to a stranger six feet away, all can make us stronger.

During Murthy's research for Together, he found that there were few issues related to our need for social connection that elicited as much enthusiastic interest from both very conservative and very liberal members of Congress, from young and old people, or from urban and rural residents alike. Loneliness was something so many people have known themselves or have seen in the people around them. In the book, Murthy also shares his own deeply personal experiences with the subject--from struggling with loneliness in school, to the devastating loss of his uncle who succumbed to his own loneliness, as well as the important example of community and connection that his parents modeled. Simply, it's a universal condition that affects the mental health of all of us directly or through the people we love--now more than ever.

Holds it all and easy to use!
Style: 16 Quart Drain Pan
I bought this oil drain pan when preparing to teach myself how to change my own oil on my Toyota Tundra 1794. Yes. Youtube and I…we be mates. Anyway! This drain pan easily held all of the old nasty oil and made it easy to complete a dirty job in a relatively clean way!

Good
Style: 16 Quart Drain Pan
I have had no issues with leaking. Just double check the o rings are good and in place and you shouldn't either. Although I'll be honest it's pretty over priced. You can go to home depot or o Reilly and find the same exact thing for a third of the price. All the same it's holding my oil just fine.

Not so good - oil splashes all over !!!
Style: 16 Quart Drain Pan
I am SO glad I just saw this pop up in my "purchased" items category...I am not only a Do it yourselfer but I also perform service work for a group of clients as well and I have to say I had a version of this before and threw it out after many years of service due to the fact it started dripping/leaking and I did not want to waste time trying to find it! with that said I purchased this and "What a mistake" every time I change the oil if it does not hit exactly the right angle or area the oil just ricochets off the surface and splashes all over the garage surface (especially when working with 0w20 type oil - thin)...I think this one will be seeing the can soon as well even after only 30-40 uses!!

Rare Small Leaks
Style: 16 Quart Drain Pan
These work well but i have noticed that they leak in small amounts from time to time. Can be a little annoying when transporting used oil or coolant to be recycled.
