Publisher's Synopsis
Human egoism, in a particular way, makes our biology to trip over our psychology. With over 9000 words (more than 7500 in prose and in excess of 1800 in original poetry), this book examines why we take to generosity and kindness, in spite of the rational appeal of selfishness. It brings up a view of the self, which view facilitates what may be a better appreciation of how the philanthropist goes happier than the miser -- and of why selfishness eventually makes the human being unhappy. The book offers to refresh the selfishness-selflessness discussion page.
