Empathy: why it matters, and how to get it. Roman Krznaric. 2015.

Roman Krznaric argues our brains are wired for social connection: empathy is at the heart of who we are. It’s an essential, transforming quality we must develop for the 21st century.

Here he sets out the six life-enhancing habits of highly empathic people and shows how their skills will enable us all to connect with others in extraordinary ways. For empathy, Krznaric reasons, is key to personal and political change - making this a manifesto for revolution.
