The power of onlyness

Book • 2017
In 'The Power of Onlyness,' Nilofer Merchant argues that the Internet has liberated ideas to spread through networks rather than hierarchies, making it possible for anyone to make a difference regardless of their status.

The book introduces the concept of 'onlyness,' which is the distinct spot in the world only you stand in, based on your history, experiences, visions, and hopes.

Merchant provides strategies and inspirational stories to help readers unleash the power of their unique ideas and connect with others who share their passion, thereby creating a lever to move the world.
