Description:

As explained by industry expert Michael E. McCullough, the concept of altruism is a unique trait of the human species that has long puzzled scientists. However, recent findings suggest that we have become increasingly altruistic over the past 12,000 years. Despite this progression, our minds still tend to prioritize the self over others. In The Kindness of Strangers, McCullough delves into the historical and scientific background of altruism, cautioning that if we are not careful, our innate instincts and sympathies may do more harm than good. While it may not come naturally, the potential for kindness exists within us all and can be nurtured through conscious effort and cooperation.
