About the Program:

Best described as a Renaissance Man, Marc Ian Barasch is an accomplished author, musician and composer. In his latest book, Field Notes on the Compassionate Life: A Search for the Soul of Kindness, Barasch takes a sweeping look at how our actions affect those we come into contact with in world around us. As a society, how much have we lost touch with compassion and empathy? And how can we begin to regain the personal strength and growth that these virtues nurture in us?
