Why individualism will fail and an empathetic society will prevail
The world is changing. Events such as the COVID pandemic, which is just one factor contributing to a more far-reaching ecological crisis, are bringing us face to face with our own fragility. They cause fear – but at the same time allow us to recognise our togetherness, our deeply entrenched sociability. We call this feeling ‘empathy’. It lies at the very root of our being, and at the heart of a culture of togetherness.
In his new book, the bestselling author and award-winning scientist Joachim Bauer explains how empathy is anchored within us, and why it provides the key to solving our social and global problems. Not only that, but the course of recent history shows that we have lost our ability to feel ‘with’ the world – and that we need to rediscover our empathy to equip ourselves for the challenges we face today.
"The way he describes the scientific findigns on [...] the inner and outer world reads like a thriller."
