Moral Minds- How Nature Designed Our Universal Sense of Right and Wrong

Moral Minds

How Nature Designed Our Universal Sense of Right and Wrong:

Marc Hauser's eminently readable and comprehensive book Moral Minds is revolutionary. He argues that humans have evolved a universal moral instinct, unconsciously propelling us to deliver judgments of right and wrong independent of gender, education, and religion. Experience tunes up our moral actions, guiding what we do as opposed to how we deliver our moral verdicts.

For hundreds of years, scholars have argued that moral judgments arise from rational and voluntary deliberations about what ought to be. The common belief today is that we reach moral decisions by consciously reasoning from principled explanations of what society determines is right or wrong. This perspective has generated the further belief that our moral psychology is founded entirely on experience and education, developing slowly and subject to considerable variation across cultures. In his groundbreaking book, Hauser shows that this dominant view is illusory.

Combining his own cutting-edge research with findings in cognitive psychology, linguistics, neuroscience, evolutionary biology, economics, and anthropology, he examines the implications of his theory for issues of bioethics, religion, law, and our everyday lives.

A Sense of the World- How a Blind Man Became History's Greatest Traveler

A Sense of the World

How a Blind Man Became History's Greatest Traveler:

He was known simply as the Blind Traveler -- a solitary, sightless adventurer who, astonishingly, fought the slave trade in Af-rica, survived a frozen captivity in Siberia, hunted rogue elephants in Ceylon, and helped chart the Australian outback. James Holman (1786-1857) became "one of the greatest wonders of the world he so sagaciously explored," triumphing not only over blindness but crippling pain, poverty, and the interference of well-meaning authorities (his greatest feat, a circumnavigation of the globe, had to be launched in secret). Once a celebrity, a bestselling author, and an inspiration to Charles Darwin and Sir Richard Francis Burton, the charismatic, witty Holman outlived his fame, dying in an obscurity that has endured -- until now.

A Sense of the World is a spellbinding and moving rediscovery of one of history's most epic lives. Drawing on meticulous research, Jason Roberts ushers us into the Blind Traveler's uniquely vivid sensory realm, then sweeps us away on an extraordinary journey across the known world during the Age of Exploration. Rich with suspense, humor, international intrigue, and unforgettable characters, this is a story to awaken our own senses of awe and wonder.

• Review:: '4 stars This can be a life changing book, in particular for those who think they have a disability, it is well written and very entertaining. Giving it 4 stars instead of 5 because of a couple "scholarly" quibbles which for most won't matter. The author Jason Roberts had very few sources to draw on so there are large gaps in the level of detail of Holman's life narrative. It's hard to tell what is authentic Holman and what is Roberts interpretation of Holman, in particular when it comes to Holman's motivations and thoughts. A very enthusiastic and sympathetic biography, there is little critical discussion, in fact Roberts seem to take offense to contemporary critics of Holman without examining it through appropriate historical context (such as Locke's then-popular notions that knowledge is gained through sensory input, etc..). Given the lack of primary sources and corresponding lite number of notes and references it is more akin to a feel-good human-interest magazine feature story. The audience is a popular one, Roberts largely avoids using numbers, such as dates (which I found cumbersome to keep track of chronology), and no numbers marking footnotes. No discussion of the English Grand Tour tradition, which is what Holman did on his first trip to Europe - we are led to believe it was just a random trip - even climbing Mt Vesuvius was a standard Grand Tour destination, Holman basically did what everyone else was doing, which by the 1820s was considered blase. No discussion of colonialism and the role travelers played in creating colonial tropes that are still popular to this day; or the sense of national duty English gentleman travelers/explorers had as a part of English colonialism. There is a lot of scholarly material on English travel literature of this period that would have been useful to put Holman into historical context. This is not a definitive biography, or even a critical one, it is a well told story for a popular audience that will hopefully draw more literary critical attention to this fascinating person.
• Review:: 'Amazing life, Even Better Writing What floored me about this book was the imaginative nature of the writing. While most good biographies provide the facts and arrange them in an interesting way - Roberts goes considerably further and literally breathes life back into James Holman, history's blind traveler. It's a resurrection on the page. A Sense of the World has it all: humor, emotional resonance, and above all - an uncanny ability to inhabit and walk in the shoes of an incredible, long-forgotten man. Reading this book is to experience these remarkable things yourself.
• Review:: 'High marks To the exclusion of almost every other genre, I read contemporary fiction. At a friend's suggestion, I made one of my first forays into the world of historical non-fiction with this book and I was swept away, both by Holman's story and by Roberts's writing. I'd happily recommend this wonderful work.
• Review:: 'Fascinating read, hard to put it down! This is one of the best biographies I've read in a long while. I am really impressed with the research Jason Roberts had to have done in order to compile this story. It is difficult to comprehend that this story was lost for so long. It is an amazing tale, full of drama, mystery and suspense, mixed with details of long-forgotten cultures and values. Well worth your time.
• Review:: 'Fascinating, beautiful and potentially life-changing. Seriously. I bought this because of the rave review in Time magazine, which said "'A Sense of the World' is inspiring--but in the real way, the way most 'inspirational' books aren't." Even before I finished reading it, I went out and bought four more copies to give away as gifts. This is one of the most fascinating books I've ever read, but it's also more than that. I was entertained, I was moved, and I was filled with a fresh resolve to live my own life to the fullest. This book can change your own sense of the world! By now you know the story is of James Holman, a naval lieutenant who lost his sight to a mysterious illness in the early 1800s. First he learned how to navigate on his own, then he went to medical school to find a cure for his own condition. He couldn't. But he found the next best thing to a cure in the challenge of solitary travel. The wonderful writing made me care deeply about Holman, even before he went blind. There is another review on this site that says the pre-travel and medical parts aren't interesting, but I found them fascinating and vital to understanding the man's character. When Holman does start traveling, he takes you with him across the world, from Siberia to uncharted Africa to the Australian outback and beyond. This is a book about what it means to be alive. An absolute MUST read, even if you don't normally read historical books, or nonfiction!
