Each of us sets the psychological climate in which others live, no matter what our age, gender or cultural background. Given our tendancy to treat others and ourselves mindlessly, Kingerlee says in this part-self-help book, part-confession, part-polemic for compassion, it may be wise for us to step back — even for just a moment — to be mindful of how to lead our lives and, in particular, what we do to each other. If, as Kingerlee believes, human mindlessness is the problem, the focused practice of human mindfulness may be the cure.
