A Conversation with Hugh Mackay
About
Hugh Mackay has had a long and illustrious career as Australia's leading social psychologist and commentator. Now he's put that aside to write some highly personal reflections on twenty-five quotations taken from some of the world’s greatest thinkers and writers, from Confucius and Plato to Susan Sontag and Miles Franklin; from Samuel Johnson and Mary Wollstonecraft to Bertrand Russell and Gloria Steinem.Interpreting our world and inspiring us to do better, Mackay explores themes ranging from kindness and humility to power and prejudice; from gender equality to ethnic diversity; from coping with change to the damage inflicted on ourselves by revenge, and the great gulf between propriety and virtue.
