On a recent episode of the podcast No Small Endeavor, Yale University professor Dr. James Kimmel, Jr. talked about his book, The Science of Revenge. The full video is available on YouTube here:
In his book, he makes the claim that revenge can be like a drug that is addictive and therefore can last for long periods of time in the brain and the emotions. The medicine for this addiction, he notes in both the podcast and the book, is forgiveness. Forgiveness is not only personal relief from resentments and revenge but also a social good for local and larger communities. Dr. Kimmel’s book is available on Amazon.com.
