The Power of Kindness by Piero Ferrucci

Product Details

About the Book

The Power of Kindness is Piero Ferrucci's stirring, deeply humane examination of a simple but profound idea: that kindness, far from being a soft or secondary virtue, is essential to both individual happiness and the wellbeing of the wider world. Ferrucci, one of the world's most respected transpersonal psychologists and a former student and collaborator of Roberto Assagioli, founder of psychosynthesis, warns against what he calls "global cooling" — an Ice Age of the Heart brought on by the accelerating pace of modern life, the intrusion of impersonal technology into human connection, and a culture that too often lets the drive for profit override the heart.

Across eighteen interlocking chapters, Ferrucci explores kindness through its many surprising dimensions — honesty, forgiveness, warmth, empathy, mindfulness, generosity, loyalty, gratitude, service, and joy — carefully distinguishing genuine kindness from self-interested politeness, calculated generosity, or superficial etiquette. Drawing on stories from religion and philosophy, anecdotes from his own psychotherapy practice, and personal reflection, Ferrucci makes the compelling case that kindness benefits the giver every bit as much as the receiver, and that the kindest among us are the most likely to thrive, help others thrive, and gradually turn the world away from violence, self-centeredness, and narcissism, toward love. This tenth-anniversary edition includes a new chapter on "Harmlessness," a fresh introduction, and additional exercises and meditations for readers to put the book's wisdom into daily practice.
