The Power of Kindness

The Unexpected Benefits of Leading a Compassionate Life

By: Piero Ferrucci

Narrated by: Mitch Horowitz

Piero Ferrucci warns against the dangers of "global cooling." As the pace of living grows faster and the impact of new technologies more insistent, communications become hurried and impersonal. The drive for profit overrides the heart. Warmth and genuine presence fade. The Power of Kindness is a stirring examination of a simple but profound concept. Piero Ferrucci, one of the world's most respected transpersonal psychologists, explores the many surprising facets of kindness and argues that it is this trait that will not only lead to our own individual happiness and the happiness of those around us, but will guide us in a world that has become cold, anxious, difficult, and frightening.

In eighteen interlocking chapters, Dr. Ferrucci reveals that the kindest people are the most likely to thrive, to enable others to thrive, and to slowly but steadily turn our world away from violence, self-centeredness, and narcissism - and toward love. Writing with a rare combination of sensitivity and intellectual depth, Dr. Ferrucci shows that, ultimately, kindness is not a luxury in our world but rather a necessity for us all.

Great examples of being kind

I loved the parables and the real life examples of what comes from being kind. The book was easy to listen to and wasn't preachy. While being kind is nothing new, everything served as a wonderful reminder.

Great read to rediscover the power of kindness.

It is true that we sometimes get distracted or we lose our way. This is a great book and I recommend it for everybody.
