Thank you Netgalley for this ARC.
I enjoyed this thought provoking book on empathy amd it’s many ways of being displayed.

Interesting read for anyone who wants to understand different viewpoints of empathy and the roles empathy can play.

This book is an interesting read for anyone who wants to understand different viewpoints of empathy, the latest research and current projects exploring empathy in a variety of settings. The concepts presented encouraged me to take a step back and consider the different roles empathy can and should play, and how it can also be so easily misunderstood. Although the book is about empathy, it made me think harder about the roles of connection and compassion and how challenging it can sometimes be to look at someone and truly see them while honoring their story, their choices, and their identity without judgment. I was heartened to read about the various projects that promote empathy and necessary community resources, and I appreciated the author's premise that empathy is a moral art, rather than a skill we cultivate through practice.

I received an e-copy of this book via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

Interesting book about empathy and it's power to heal on a global scale. Well researched and written. But, lots to process here. This could potentially be distilled into more actionable bites (something like TED talks, perhaps) and be a bit more digestible.
