Opis

Unlock the mysteries surrounding one of the nineteenth century's most brilliant minds in author Marv Friedlander's debut, "Felix Speaks: Adler's Ethical Culture."

Felix Adler, founder of the Ethical Culture movement, dedicated his life to espousing the idea that every person possesses an intrinsic worth that needs nurturing. His emphasis on ethics, or the development of "right relationships," moved a whole generation of humanists who sought to live out such a philosophy.

Now, those involved in ethical or humanist societies, as well as those who simply have an interest in learning more about humanism as a whole, can study Adler's ideas in a language that is more accessible than ever.

Beginning with a brief biography of the man behind the movement, Friedlander then introduces a series of short articles and essays based on the essential ideas of Adler's philosophy. Imagined conversations between Adler and his wife, or Adler and a fellow member of the Ethical Society, enliven the philosophic ideas in a way that make them easier to comprehend-and provide an ideal launching pad from which to generate conversation among those who seek to make a difference.
