In Zero Degrees of Empathy: A New Theory of Human Cruelty & Kindness" Simon Baron-Cohen takes fascinating & challenging new look at what exactly makes our behaviour uniquely human. How can we ever explain human cruelty? We have always struggled to understand why some people behave in the most evil way imaginable while others are completely self-sacrificing. Is it possible that
- rather than thinking in terms of 'good' & 'evil'
- all of us instead lie somewhere on the empathy spectrum & our position on that spectrum can be affected by both genes & our environments? Why do some people treat others as objects?
