Social Ethics

If ever there was a book that could sprout arms, grow hands, slap you in the face, and then follow it up with a kiss...this is it. Education, religion, money, gay sex, and fat doctors are all stripped naked and exposed for what they are. However, as quickly as the book turns on you and points out your hugely ignorant methods of thinking, it grows a heart. It lets you know that it's all good. The world is a beautiful place. People are capable of the extraordinary, and maybe the old saying is true: All we need is love.

In Entangled Empathy, scholar and activist Lori Gruen argues that rather than focusing on animal "rights", we ought to work to make our relationships with animals right by empathetically responding to their needs, interests, desires, vulnerabilities, hopes, and unique perspectives. Pointing out that we are already entangled in complex and life-altering relationships with other animals, Gruen guides listeners through a new way of thinking about - and practicing - animal ethics.

Max Weber was the first to identify beliefs and practices that influenced economic behavior. He found Catholics generally less motivated to succeed in business than Protestants because of their religious belief that everyone could achieve salvation. The branch of Protestants known as Calvinists, on the other hand, believed God determined everyone's salvation status before birth. Nothing a person might do on earth could save a soul marked for damnation.
