On Being Human: A Work in Progress: Monologues & Essays 2009-2011

Being human is a work in progress says John Tierney in this easy-to- read collection of monologues and essays on…well... being human. “Dr.T.” as his students call him, offers insightful commentary on some of the basics: emotion, connection, spirituality, identity, sexuality and more. Through anecdotes and stories Professor Tierney infuses in his writing the humor and wit that has made him popular with students for more than four decades, a ‘little weird’ by his own admission yet engaging and often LOL funny. John challenges you in this “Littlebook” to nurture a finer moral sense within yourself; to imagine a finer moral order in the world; and, to lead the way for others. He asks that you start with a single moral truth: It is wrong to kill other humans!
