Bøger af Sidney Waldman

The God in Us describes the reality and potential of our ethics and compassion. It deals with certain questions such as how we can discover and know this. It shows how this bears not only on our sense of well-being, but also on what happens in our world.

Sidney Waldman taught at Haverford College for forty-five years. His field was American politics. When he saw that what politics could achieve was limited by limits in the ethics and compassion of the American people, he focused on the fields of religion and philosophy to try to facilitate ethics and compassion. That led him to an awareness of the God in us, both as reality and potential.

America and the Limits of the Politics of Selfishness examines Congress, the Presidency, the public, and public policy, demonstrating the important impact of the public's selfishness, morality, compassion, and religious beliefs on the American political system.
