On Tuesday April 30, 2013, the Harvard Coop hosted Dr. Kevin Ryan, Dr. Karen Bohlin and Dr. Bernice Lerner as a part of the Meet the Author Series.  Dr. Ryan, Dr. Bohlin and Dr. Lerner co-authored Happiness and Virtue Beyond East and West with three Japanese authors from Reitaku University, Japan. Happiness and Virtue Beyond East and West examines nine essential virtues through a series of essays.

To a group of nearly 40 scholars, Dr Ryan, Dr. Bohlin, Dr. Lerner and their copy editor Elisabeth Carter described the history behind the book and the collaboration process with the three Japanese authors.  In addition, the authors took the time to describe their personal connection to the nine virtues and answer thought provoking questions on character.

 

This event brought the past 15 years of the Center for Character and Social Responsibility together, as seen in the photo below.
