| Summary, etc |
When did kindness become a sign of weakness? These days we view kindness as an inert act based solely on the absence of being a jerk, or as heroic and herculean, beyond the reach and capability of mere mortals. But what if kindness actually had the power to save the world? In his engaging new book In Defense of Kindness, leadership coach and pastor Bruce Reyes-Chow shows how being kind (which is different than being nice) has the power to transform our relationships in all arenas of our life - from the internet to the public square, from with our families to those we find it most difficult to be kind to, from justice work on the streets to boardroom meetings, and in our everyday transactions, from the school drop-off line or standing in line at the coffee shop. Relevant, insightful, warm, relatable, and written with Bruce's trademark cheeky wit, In Defense of Kindness will jumpstart your heart and inspire you to practice kindness as a daily discipline, grounded in the idea that each person is created and complex and worthy of dignity and respect. Each chapter ends with reflection questions and several practices for living out kindness in the world every day. Join the kindness movement and help save the world ... today! |

| Biographical or historical note |
Bruce Reyes-Chow is a kindness enthusiast. A Presbyterian Pastor, Leadership Coach, spouse of 30 years, and parent to three children, he has spent the past 25 years working with individuals and organizations helping them to work through conflict and change having to do with technology, race, relationships, religion, leadership, and change. He has seen most breakthroughs when kindness --the ability to see the humanity of the other and then behave in a way that honors that belief-- is embraced, embodied, and expressed by all involved. Author of and contributor to books such as, "But I Don't See You as Asian: Curating Conversations About Race", "Rule #2: Don't Be an Asshat: An Official Handbook for Raising Parents and Children:, and "40 Days, 40 Prayers, 40 Words: Lenten Reflections for Everyday Life", he now takes on what seems a most daunting task in today's world of so much physical violence, dehumanizing rhetoric, and divisive rage-tweeting -- the defense of kindness. |
