Description

Wattle surveys the history of the golden rule and its spectrum of meanings in diverse contexts, ranging from Confucius to Plato and Aristotle, from classical Jewish literature to the New Testament. Wattles explores the use of the rule by some early 20th century American leaders and examines various psychological theories about the imaginative role reversal the rule suggests.
