Publisher's Synopsis
Empathy is an emotional ability over which most humans have some degree of control. It allows us to feel emotions indirectly through others, and sometimes also physical sensations. Most of us show little empathy every day without being aware of it, as it is very essential for all aspects of our life. Empathy is what forces us to yawn when we see someone else doing it, laughing at something funny, or comforting someone who is suffering. Without it, all of our interpersonal relationships would be cold, calculated, robotic or insensitive; Violence would be seen as a simple and easy way to resolve conflicts, and the feeling we call "love" would be reduced to a crushing. We need empathy for society to function peacefully, and during times when it seems to be lacking, we tend to idealize it. Many of us have come to see a person's ability to empathize with others as a measure of their best efforts and we strive to show our sensitivity to other people's emotions as often as possible. If we are accused of a lack of empathy, we will probably feel that we have been called monsters.What is the difference between having empathy and being empathic?
