Tegen empathie: Een pleidooi voor rationele compassie

Bloom's case that rational compassion is more effective than empathy in moral decision-making made me rethink how I approach kindness. I'm curious if others felt this perspective challenged their beliefs.

The selection of experiments and examples felt very deliberate, but I wonder what guided his choices. Did he prioritize certain types of evidence over others?

The book offers a counterintuitive view that seems to go against popular notions of compassion. I'm interested in what personal or academic experiences led Bloom to develop this argument.
