When was the last time you helped someone? What motivated you to do it? Perhaps someone did you a good deed recently. How did it pan out? What if you help someone and it goes wrong? What if they don't want you to help them? If we force help on another person when they don't want it, is that altruism or selfishness? What are the origins of altruism? These are some of the questions we consider on the podcast this week. We discuss what altruism is, whether pure selflessness is actually humanly possible, and explore altruism in the news. And I share with you some exciting, brand new research findings on the benefits of altruism. You aren't going to want to miss this episode!
