My journey of growth and discovery these last five years or so were due to a great many books that I read and found to be immediately pertinent to my life. One of the most pivotal was, "The Highly Sensitive Person" by Elaine Aron. I have recommended this book over and over to people I meet who seem to be in the same state of confusion that I was, or who have the same sensitivities that make it sometimes hard to 'fit in' with the way the world works.
Elaine Aron has a website and a newsletter. The current newsletter has three articles that are well worth reading.
Latest Research:
What HSPs See: Our Brain Is Not
as Easily Confused by Culture and Context
What HSPs Can Give and Get from Animals and Babies
Book Review: Unto Others: The Evolution and
Psychology of Unselfish Behavior
by Elliott Sober and David Sloan Wilson, Harvard University Press, 1998
I am adding a link to The Unlimited Love Institute to go along with this last book and article. Stephen G. Post, Case Western Reserve University, Cleveland, is doing research and writing on the same topic. He will soon be releasing his new book, "Why it's Good to be Good". There are other books at the Institute link with similiar topics.
