By Jim Anders, Author of "All Drinking Aside"
This review is from: Empathy: Why It Matters, and How to Get It (Kindle Edition)
Reading “Empathy” by Roman Krznaric left me hungry… for more empathy. There are those who are highly empathic and those who suffer an empathy deficit. As an alcoholic in recovery, I understand that becoming more empathic will facilitate my healing. Mr. Krznaric is scholarly in his portrayal of the importance of cultural inheritance and the ability of the brain to learn empathy. On a personal level, I appreciated his counterintuitive remarks regarding the sometimes divisive dangers of “we” as a pronoun.
My yearning for more empathy is sustained throughout the book. From “empathic immersion” to “emotional fatigue,” the full range of his subject is explored.
The closing chapters are a definite call to action and consciousness raising. Krznaric’s exploration of increasing empathy for future generations and distant cultures brought me fully on board. “Empathy: Why It Matters, and How to Get It” closes with a link to his “Empathic Revolution” site.
