Frans de Waal is a world-renowned primatologist and empathy expert, and this book is his masterpiece on the subject of empathy. De Waal brilliantly makes the case that the standard story that human beings are essentially selfish by nature has little scientific grounding.
A wonderful resource on how empathy can trigger creative thinking skills, and how this skill can be nurtured through an educational system that encourages arts and sciences integration.
