Rezensionen

'This is an in-depth, comprehensive and highly applicable book on the elusive phenomenon of empathy, in which the authors present their original, holistic general psychological concept of the development of human empathy and its attributes. The critical points of development of the empathic personality throughout human life are thoroughly investigated and analysed. There is no doubt in my mind that this book will be of significant interest to both researchers and students, as well as to practicing psychologists, teachers, and parents - in other words, to all those who work in this field.'
Dr. Ephraim Suhir, IEEE, ASME, SPIE, IMAPS, Life Fellow, Portland State University, USA

'The Development of Empathy focuses primarily on the positive aspects of empathy. The authors perceive empathy as an individual's valuable personal resource, rooted in early social experiences accumulated in relationships with loved ones, and that changes in its strength and scope are interrelated with experiences gained in subsequent periods of life. The book is a rich source of knowledge about empathy that will be useful for scientists, students, practitioners and parents interested in educating children as people capable of empathy towards others.'
Hanna Liberska, Head of the Department of Social Psychology, Kazimierz Wielki University, Bydgoszcz, Poland
