Altruistic Love: A Study of American Good Neighbors and Christian Saints is a book written by Pitrim A. Sorokin that explores the concept of altruistic love in American society. The book examines the lives of individuals who have exhibited selfless acts of love and kindness towards others, including both everyday good neighbors and notable Christian saints. Sorokin analyzes the motivations behind altruistic behavior, exploring the role of religion, social norms, and personal values in shaping individuals' attitudes towards others. He also examines the impact of altruistic love on both the giver and the recipient, highlighting the positive effects it can have on mental health, social relationships, and overall well-being.Throughout the book, Sorokin draws on a wide range of sources, including interviews with individuals who have exhibited altruistic behavior, historical accounts of Christian saints, and sociological research on the nature of human behavior. He ultimately argues that altruistic love is a fundamental aspect of human nature that has the power to transform individuals and society as a whole.Overall, Altruistic Love is a thought-provoking and insightful exploration of the power of selfless acts of kindness and the role they play in shaping our world.First Of A Vital Series Prepared By The Harvard Research Center In Altruistic Integration And Creativity.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
