Readings that are helpful

Steven Pinker's fantastic book on Human Nature--'The Better Angels of our Nature'-- is really relevant. I'm only 2 chapters into it and his arguments are convincing me. Do check out http://stevenpinker.com/pinker/content/review-excerpts-better-angels-our-nature & http://www.ted.com/talks/steven_pinker_on_the_myth_of_violence.html AC Grayling's books are easily found in your nearest public library. Very interesting ideas. UC Berkley's website has interesting website with an overview/ introduction to the issue of morality. UC Berkley's one of the universities I wish I could go to...http://tigger.uic.edu/~lnucci/MoralEd/overview.html I will continue posting up more as I research more. If anyone finds anything useful, please post it up as well to share with your friends. Cheers Ms Goh
