Sinopsis

In an era of uncertainty and rapid change, Aristotle's profound insights into ethics and human flourishing offer a timeless guide for navigating the complexities of modern life. "The Quest for Ethical Living" delves into the core principles of Aristotle's moral philosophy, exploring the concepts of eudaimonia (happiness or flourishing), virtue, and the good life.

Aristotle believed that the ultimate goal of human existence is to achieve eudaimonia, a state of lasting well-being and fulfillment. This can only be attained through the cultivation of virtues, excellences of character that enable us to live in harmony with our rational nature.

The book explores the various virtues identified by Aristotle, including moral virtues such as courage, temperance, and justice, and intellectual virtues such as wisdom, understanding, and knowledge. It emphasizes the importance of finding a balance, a golden mean, between extremes, as virtues are not fixed traits but rather dynamic qualities that require us to navigate the complexities of human experience with prudence and discernment.

Aristotle also examines the social and political dimensions of ethics, recognizing the importance of justice in creating a harmonious and equitable society, the role of friendship in fostering human flourishing, and the relationship between ethics and political life.

With clarity and depth, "The Quest for Ethical Living" unpacks Aristotle's ethical thought, making it accessible to contemporary readers. It offers practical insights into how we can cultivate virtues, make ethical decisions, and live meaningful and fulfilling lives in an ever-changing world.

Drawing inspiration from Aristotle's wisdom, this book provides a roadmap for personal and societal transformation, inviting readers to embark on a journey of self-discovery and ethical reflection. It is an invaluable resource for anyone seeking to live a life of purpose, integrity, and flourishing.

    It takes strength not to curse someone out when they’re being rude, or not to lose it when your child is being disobedient. It is also emotionally taxing to keep it all together when you are on the receiving end of a microaggression. 
    Each of these instances requires us to use our emotional intelligence (or EQ). And, while it is a basic skill, there are more shades to emotional intelligence than you might think. Emotional intelligence can also be used to break barriers to equity. 
    In The Color of Emotional Intelligence, psychotherapist and well-being expert Farah Harris uses personal stories, anecdotes, and insight to discuss:The fundamentals of emotional intelligence and barriers to practicing EQ effectivelyHow emotional intelligence is used as a survival skill by marginalized peopleDifferent types of stressors, including microaggressions, and resulting unhealthy defensive tactics, such as code-switching and maskingSelf-care strategies for handling systemic stressors that affect people from marginalized groupsTools everyone can use to elevate their emotional intelligence to address inequities and become better stewards of humanity 
    Don’t go through life seeing things in black and white. It’s time to see the world in color.

    How did our brains change over the course of evolution, and what did it mean for our ancestors? Why do we behave the way we do today? Evolutionary psychology is the only framework that allows us to fully understand the nuances of humans' motivations, emotions, cognitions, and behaviors. Our bodies have evolved over time, and so too have our brains. How we respond to situations emotionally, our thoughts, our motivations, and our behaviors have a deep heritage based on the successes of our ancestors in meeting their survival or reproductive needs.In this Very Short Introduction, Maryanne L. Fisher and T. Joel Wade unfold the intriguing idea that our brain, like every other body part, has been shaped over time by natural and sexual selection. Fisher and Wade consider the contexts in which our ancestors thrived and explore how people today think and act using an evolutionary compass. This research-oriented exploration addresses diverse topics, organized into chapters on the principles underlying this approach, survival issues, group alliances, aggression, family dynamics, and mating strategies. It touches on a broad array of topics like fears, disgust, attraction, sibling conflict, friendship, and homicide.
