The distant rustle of a tusker emerging one morning from the forests of Nepal. The crack of the shifting expanses of ice in northern Mongolia. The swirl of mist around a lantern atop of Hong Kong Island. The squeaky whistle of diving kites over the holy waters of Varanasi. Black clouds carrying sleet over the rock country of Australia. Men with their eagles on horseback singing love songs as they ride through tall grasslands.

Pay attention to the small, magical things that are happening within each image and find your own place within them. There we can meet in silence—and be still.

本書的論點很有說服力，文筆生動，來自哲學和心理學理論的例子鞭辟入裡，甚至取經文化，諸如《仲夏夜之夢》、《白鯨記》和《魔法奇兵》。儘管我已經研究了各種形式的同理心四十餘年，還是從本書學到很多東西；本書讓我以一些全新的方式思考視角轉換。――戴維斯（Mark H. Davis），埃克德學院心理學榮譽教授，《同理心：一種社會心理學方法》作者麥波姆的新書相當全面，以敏銳的哲學觀細膩地分析心理學研究，並用有創意的方式來思考視角轉換在人際理解和我們自我概念中所扮演的角色。本書精心從文學、電影和日常生活中挑選例子，藉此闡述抽象的觀點，讀起來相當愉悅。――史都博（Karsten R. Stueber），聖十字學院哲學教授，《重新發現同理心》作者到目前為止，我們對同理心的理解仍是少之又少。對於這種理解人類的複雜模式，本書首度在智識上提供令人滿意的描述，內容引人入勝、幽默且富有洞察力。麥波姆出色地說明了同理心為什麼仰賴情感，以及同理心如何使我們變得更公正和客觀。――傑克（Anthony I. Jack），凱斯西儲大學哲學副教授兼大腦、心智與意識實驗室主任將心比心、感同身受，容易嗎？本書將升級你的共感能力，讀懂對方意思你是否遇過，規規矩矩開車時，親友卻對你的駕駛方式指指點點？你是否遇過，對事情發表意見的時候，被人要求須保持客觀？麥波姆說，同理心並沒有想像中容易，而且完全客觀根本做不到；畢竟我們看待世界時一定會有「視角」。麥波姆從我們熟悉的第一人稱視角開始介紹，再轉換到第二、第三人稱視角，讓我們瞭解，事情的「真相」不見得只有一種。麥波姆更說，換位思考是有等級的：第一級是想像自己成為他人，見他人所見；第二級則是走入與他們相同的情境，感他人所感，在相同的心境之中，體會整體事件或行為。愈能換位思考，就愈能融入其他觀點，進而完整解讀事物的全貌，減少盲點產生。提升共感力，也增加宏觀看待事物的能力，不但可以改善人際關係，更能做出正確的決定。
