Re: Positive psychology and emotional management in the USA




Maybe what the left needs is the sociological equivalent of Depakote, a mood-stabilizer, or Prozac...



I think it's called art :) Music, dance, theater. Lessing wrote a most
wonderful treatise about this: "Letters on the Aesthetic Education of
Man." It's a bit thick with eighteenth century abstract verbiage, but
underneath it all, there's a marvellous argument about how to sow the
seeds of revolutionary thought and feeling.
