BOOK DESCRIPTION
What exactly does it mean to be 'wise?' And is it possible to grow and even accelerate its unfolding? For over two decades, Dr. Dilip Jeste has led the search for the biological and cognitive roots of wisdom. What's emerged from his work is that wisdom is a very real and deeply multilayered set of traits. Across many cultures and centuries, he's found that wise people are compassionate and empathetic, aware of their gifts and blind spots, open–minded, resolute and calm amid uncertainty, altruistic decision–makers who learn from their experiences, able to see from many perspectives and 'altitudes' and often blessed with a sense of adventure and humour. 'The modern rise in suicides, opioid abuse, loneliness and internet addiction is damaging people’s health and destroying the social fabric,' Dr. Jeste reflects. But we all have the ability to nurture and grow every facet of wisdom to face these challenges and others more effectively. If you seek to be a wiser person – with your family, at work and in your community – this audiobook will show you how, with the researcher who's launched and advanced this exciting new path to our highest human potential.
