“This biography is unique in that it consists of eye-witness accounts and 20 black-and-white photographs, along with Mother Teresa’s own words. This brief biography offers highlights from her humble yet splendid life and shows why the love she embodied will last forever.”
“Mother Teresa was a living saint, drawing both rich and poor to her side and to the message of God.”
“Using developmental psychological theory from Lawrence Kohlberg’s theory of moral development, Norma Hann’s emphasis on the role of emotion and defense mechanisms in self-perceptions related to morality, and Carol Gilligan’s theory of sexual differences in ethics, as well as Martin Hoffman’s theory of empathic development, Shelton constructs a moral theory rooted in the human capacity for empathy. He considers how empathy is developed, how emotions may be developed, and how persons become blind to their own immorality, ending with a brief caution about the limits of empathy.”
Modern Esoteric Spirituality edited by Jacob Needleman and Antoine Faivre provides a window into a wide range of gnostic worldviews which continue to exert an influence today. this book, volume 21 in the World Spirituality series, provides background for much of the modern new age movement.
