Survival of the Kindest: Dr Julian Abel - Making Compassionate Decisions

In this episode, Allan turns interviewer to ask Julian about the background of The Compassion Project. Julian discusses how why he wrote the book and how it draws on themes that have taken 30 years or more to mature. He goes on to talk about why compassion is important and how it can be used throughout our life, whether this be at home, at work, in schools and not to forget politics. Both Julian and Allan answer the two questions asked of all of our guests: about a moment when the smallest thing made the biggest difference and their favourite public moment of compassion?
