Jonathan haidt collection 3 books set includes titles in this set:- happiness hypothesis, the righteous mind, coddling of the american mind [hardcover]. Description:- The Happiness Hypothesis: Putting Ancient Wisdom to the Test of Modern Science Every culture rests on a bedrock of folk wisdom handed down through generations. The pronouncements of philosophers are homespun by our grandmothers, and find their way into our common sense: what doesn't kill you makes you stronger. Do unto others as you would have done unto you. Happiness comes from within. The Righteous Mind: Why Good People are Divided by Politics and Religion In The Righteous Mind, psychologist Jonathan Haidt answers some of the most compelling questions about human relationships: Why can it sometimes feel as though half the population is living in a different moral universe? Why do ideas such as 'fairness' and 'freedom' mean such different things to different people? Why is it so hard to see things from another viewpoint? Why do we come to blows over politics and religion? The Coddling of the American Mind: How Good Intentions and Bad Ideas Are Setting Up a Generation for Failure These three Great Untruths contradict basic psychological principles about well-being, as well as ancient wisdom from many cultures. And yet they have become increasingly woven into education, culminating in a stifling culture of "safetyism" that began on American college.
