Book Synopsis Of Human Kindness by : Paula Marantz Cohen
Download or read book Of Human Kindness written by Paula Marantz Cohen and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2021-02-09 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An award-winning scholar and teacher explores how Shakespeare's greatest characters were built on a learned sense of empathy While exploring Shakespeare's plays with her students, Paula Marantz Cohen discovered that teaching and discussing his plays unlocked a surprising sense of compassion in the classroom. In this short and illuminating book, she shows how Shakespeare's genius lay with his ability to arouse empathy, even when his characters exist in alien contexts and behave in reprehensible ways. Cohen takes her readers through a selection of Shakespeare's most famous plays, including Hamlet, Othello, King Lear, and The Merchant of Venice, to demonstrate the ways in which Shakespeare thought deeply and clearly about how we treat "the other." Cohen argues that only through close reading of Shakespeare can we fully appreciate his empathetic response to race, class, gender, and age. Wise, eloquent, and thoughtful, this book is a forceful argument for literature's power to champion what is best in us.
Download or read book Fear and Courage written by Renée Hollis and published by Exisle Publishing. This book was released on 2019-10-07 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We have all felt fear, whether it’s our racing heart as we make a speech or the profound awareness of our own mortality as we await medical results. Of course, the flip-side of fear is courage: as Nelson Mandela famously said, ‘I learned that courage was not the absence of fear but the triumph over it.’ The 25 true stories showcased here capture the full range of the fear and courage experience. At times humorous, often poignant, they shine a light on just what it means to be human.
Book Synopsis Human Kindness and the Smell of Warm Croissants by : Ruwen Ogien
Download or read book Human Kindness and the Smell of Warm Croissants written by Ruwen Ogien and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2015-05-19 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Human Kindness and the Smell of Warm Croissants makes philosophy fun, tactile, and popular. Moral thinking is simple, Ruwen Ogien argues, and as inherent as the senses. In our daily experiences, in the situations we confront and in the scenes we witness, we develop an understanding of right and wrong as sophisticated as the moral outlook of the world's most gifted philosophers. By drawing on this knowledge to navigate life's most perplexing problems, ethics becomes second nature. Ogien explores, through experimental philosophy and other methods, the responses nineteen real-world conundrums provoke. Is a short, mediocre life better than no life at all? Is it acceptable to kill a healthy person so his organs can save five others? Would you swap a "natural" life filled with frustration, disappointment, and partial success for a world in which all of your needs are met, but through artificial and mechanical means? Ogien doesn't seek to show how difficult it is to determine right from wrong or how easy it is for humans to become monsters or react like saints. Helping us tap into the wisdom and feeling we already possess in our ethical "toolboxes," Ogien instead encourages readers to question moral presuppositions and rules; embrace an intuitive sense of dignity, virtue, and justice; and pursue a pluralist ethics suited to the principles of human kindness.

In the distribution of kindness, Dr. Mao states: “One, do no harm. Two, use it in a most effective way.”

Book Synopsis The Balance of Human Kindness and Cruelty by : Robert B. Edgerton
Download or read book The Balance of Human Kindness and Cruelty written by Robert B. Edgerton and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book reviews the many conflicting theories about human nature, those that stress our dark side, and those that emphasize our goodness. It then explores actual human behavior in societies around the world beginning with earliest and smallest known societies, foraging people such as the Kung San Pygmies, then various kinds of farming people, and finally, city dwellers. It also focuses on human behavior during the 20th Century providing detailed examples of human kindness and inhumanity. It also examines human behavior under the most terrible kind of stress imaginable--deadly, prolonged famine. How people respond to famine around the world is described with an emphasis on the killer famine that starved much of Ireland from 1845 to 1850. Many Irish people died of starvation but unlike other parts of the world where starvation led the strong to kill and eat the weak, Irish culture forbade such killing and in reality it did not take place. Finally, the book summarizes the evidence, then concludes that even though people have biological urges that lead toward anti-social behavior, human rule systems can control most of these anti-social predispositions.

Download or read book Human Kindness written by Robin Auld Giuggio and published by Author House. This book was released on 2014-02 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a guide for clinicians to care for their patients with human kindness. A patients soul needs as much caregiving as the body that protects that soul. We are taught skills for caregiving. We are tested on those skills and then we are licensed to perform those skills for our patients. Applying those skills on real people with real pain and illnesses is quite different out side the classroom. Our need to be cared for with human kindness, not just cared for. After reading this book, you will have a better understanding of how to make your patient feel better both mentally and physically. Human kindness goes a long way. Sometimes more than medicine or a quick sponge bath.
