Coming People

Coming People

by Charles F. Dole

In "Coming People," Charles F. Dole argues that the "survival of the fittest" is not the only driving force of evolution. He believes that kindness, gentleness, and empathy are also essential for the survival of our species. Dole's argument is based on a wide range of evidence, from history to biology to psychology. He shows how kindness and cooperation have been essential for the survival of human societies throughout history. He also shows how these qualities are supported by our biology and our psychology. Dole's book is a powerful and persuasive argument for the importance of kindness and empathy in our world. It is a must-read for anyone who is interested in the future of our species.
