Summary: Amy Alkon's Advice Goddess Radio: "Nerd Your Way To A Better Life!" with the best brains in science. My guest tonight is child psychiatrist and trauma specialist Bruce D. Perry on increasing empathy, and why it’s key to living a happy, healthy, productive life -- from infancy on. We’ll be talking about his wonderful book, Born For Love: Why empathy is essential -- and endangered, co-authored with one of the science writers I respect, Maia Szalavitz. Join me and all my fascinating guests every Sunday from 7-8 pm Pacific and 10-11 pm Eastern, here at blogtalkradio.com/amyalkon or subscribe on iTunes or Stitcher. Buy my book, I SEE RUDE PEOPLE: One woman's battle to beat some manners into impolite society, at Amazon, and look for my award-winning, nationally syndicated, science-based advice column, The Advice Goddess, in a paper near you, or ask the editor to carry it!
