Just Babies: The Origins of Good and Evil by Paul Bloom

4.0

Each chapter prompted thought for me, but in a way a dry textbook couldn't. The way Bloom writes seems identical to the way he speaks; welcoming, and comical at times, but without the loss of appreciation for the dilemmas he discussed.

Towards the end Bloom sealed the 5 star deal for me by referencing Rick Blaine from Casablanca, in order to argue for a human innate sense of the greater good.

"Look, I'm no good at being noble, but it doesn't take much to see that the problems of three little people don't amount to a hill of beans in this crazy world."
