Kindness is the foundation of the world's great religions and
most-enduring philosophies. Why, then, does being kind feel so
dangerous? If we crave kindness with such intensity, why is it
often the last pleasure we permit ourselves? And why--despite our
longing--are we often suspicious when we are on the receiving end
of it?
Drawing on intellectual history, literature, psychoanalysis, and
contemporary social theory, this brief and essential book will
return to its readers what Marcus Aurelius declared was mankind's
"greatest delight": the intense satisfactions of generosity and
compassion.
