The Righteous Mind

Jonathan Haidt turns his attention to the study of human morality, and the psychological roots of our political divisions, in The Righteous Mind. Haidt draws on research in psychology, sociology, and evolutionary biology to explain why people’s moral beliefs so commonly clash, and how recognizing these differences can help you promote better communication and cooperation between ideological camps. Yet this book is thought provoking and insightful in challenging traditional view of morality.
