Mehr zum Buch

Focusing on moral choice and courage, the book delves into the experiences of individuals confronted with ethical dilemmas. Through interviews, the author examines the motivations behind their decisions, ranging from public officials grappling with honesty in policy to private citizens dedicated to helping others. Monroe posits that moral courage is deeply linked to one's identity, revealing how personal narratives shape the resolve to act courageously, as seen in her previous research on Holocaust rescuers.
