Clear+Vivid with Alan Alda

Is Empathy Good or Bad? A Conversation with Paul Bloom

31 Jul 2018

Description

Yale Professor Paul Bloom doesn't think empathy is such a good thing. He's even written a book about it called, The Case Against Empathy. However, he does have an interesting theory about what he calls rational compassion. Paul and Alan Alda discuss their views for and against empathy and find out that they have more in common than they thought.Support the show: https://www.patreon.com/clearandvivid Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
