If only the propensity to give was more dominant in our gene pool. Or is it mostly learned? Either way, it does the body and mind good. I think I'll check-in on their websites.MDKhttp://sfwriter-mdk.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31529261.post-31685289724514608532007-05-27T11:19:00.000+12:002007-05-27T11:19:00.000+12:00This does sound like a really great book.<BR/><BR/>So much of psychological literature up until recently had focused on dysfunction and maladaptive behaviors. It's great to see this new emphasis on positive psychology and altruism.<BR/><BR/>It makes intuitive sense that generosity and altruism benefit not only the receivers but the givers too.<BR/><BR/>I'd review this book on my site too, but what's in it for me?<BR/><BR/>(lame joke, sorry)Crabby McSlackerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12108791388350253344noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31529261.post-18421957012349409092007-05-26T19:48:00.000+12:002007-05-26T19:48:00.000+12:00I have this sudden urgent resolution to become good.
