Focusing on the relationship between modernity and compassion, the book challenges the prevailing notion that modernity erodes moral sentiments. It highlights how modernity not only dismantles traditional social bonds but also fosters new connections that promote compassion. By providing a historically informed perspective, it aims to correct the common critique of modernity and reveal its potential to cultivate empathy and social ties.
