Humanly possible

After the dreadful Pour une morale de l’ambiguité by Simone de Beauvoir, or the existentialism as a frightening addition to the long « mal mesure de l’homme », this read has been more than welcome.
Sarah Bakewell takes us in a balade into humanists ideas and theories, their fight to keep alive the small light of human good ways, the discussions and hard work to make the gentle ideal of sympathy toward fellow humans, the wish to build societies where everyone is an individual person entitled to provide the best and brightest through education and engagement with others.
As we are facing a renewal of the worst in human systems and politics, these ideas and propositions are a necessity to anyone to read and work with.
