DESCRIPTION

best sellerDavid Brooks challenges us to rebalance the scales between the focus on external
success - “r#233sumévirtues”- and our core principles.Named one of the best
books of the year by The Economist Wit the wisdom, humor, curiosity, and sharp insights
that have brought millions of readers to his New York Times column and his previous best sellers,
David Brooks has consistently illuminated our daily lives in surprising and original ways. In The
Social Animal, he explored the neuroscience of human connection and how we can flourish
together. Now, in The Road to Character, he focuses on the deeper values that should inform our
lives.Looking to some of the world's greatest thinkers and inspiring leaders, Brooks explores how,
through internal struggle and a sense of their own limitations, they have built a strong inner
character. Labor activist Frances Perkins understood the need to suppress parts of herself so that
she could be an instrument in a larger cause. Dwight Eisenhower organized his life not around
impulsive self-expression but considered self-restraint. Dorothy Day, a devout Catholic convert
and champion of the poor, learned as a young woman the vocabulary of simplicity and surrender.
Civil rights pioneers A. Philip Randolph and Bayard Rustin learned reticence and the logic of selfdiscipline,
the need to distrust oneself even while waging a noble crusade. Bleding
psychology, politics, spirituality, and confessional, The Road to Character provides an opportunity
for us to rethink our priorities and strive to build rich inner lives marked by humility and moral
depth.“Jo,”David Brooks writes, “isa byproduct experienced by people who
are aiming for something else. But it comes.”nbsp nbspPraise for The Road to
Character #8220A hyper-readable, lucid, often richly detailed human story.”(The New
York Times Book Review)“Ths profound and eloquent book is written with moral urgency
and philosophical elegance.”(Andrew Solomon, author of Far from the Tree and The
Noonday Demon)“Apowerful, haunting book that works its way beneath your
skin.”(The Guardian)“Orginal and eye-opening... Brooks is a normative version of
Malcolm Gladwell, culling from a wide array of scientists and thinkers to weave an idea bigger than
the sum of its parts.”(USA Today)
