Against Empathy: The Case for Rational Compassion - Book by Paul Bloom

In Against Empathy, psychologist Paul Bloom argues that empathy—our natural tendency to emotionally connect with others’ pain—can be a flawed guide for moral decision-making. He asserts that while empathy can inspire helpful actions, it often leads to bias, impulsivity, and misguided choices. Bloom advocates for a more rational form of compassion, grounded in reason and fairness, which he believes leads to more effective and just outcomes.
