New forms of manipulation and the inundation of stimuli from new media pose a great risk to children’s mental health. Finally, society has started to respond.

Vers un monde altruiste ?
8
"L'Homme est un loup pour l'Homme" ont écrit des générations de philosophes ; et l'histoire du monde semble écrite pour illustrer cette phrase implacable. Pourtant, des voix s'élèvent contre cette vision de la nature humaine. Des scientifiques issus de disciplines aussi différentes que la psychologie, la primatologie, les mathématiques ou les neurosciences inventent le vocabulaire d'une autre histoire : l'altruisme et la coopération en sont les maîtres mots. Mieux : "si l'altruisme existe, nous avons la possibilité de le cultiver", affirment ces chercheurs. À l'heure des défis planétaires, qui appellent des changements radicaux, connaître la nature profonde de l'homme – ange ou démon ? – permet ainsi d'imaginer des outils efficaces pour provoquer ces changements.

The meeting of their minds and scientific research reveals how mental training techniques can help us develop well-being, become more compassionate and ultimately improve the impact we have on our planet, and how humanity is much more deeply connected that we would ever think.
