The Golden Rule, published by Oxford University Press, shows the life in the most widespread moral teaching in the world. Variously expressed and interpreted, the golden rule, “Do to others as you want others to do to you” is a one-sentence philosophy of living. This principle has acquired a wealth of meanings as different cultures and academic disciplines have applied the rule to the problems that interested them. This book includes chapters on Confucianism, ancient Greek culture, classical Judaism, the New Testament; and philosophy, psychology, and religion.
The golden rule, “Do to others as you want others to do to you,” is the principle of the practice of the family of God. Jesus taught six levels of interpretation of this rule of living, and every one makes an appearance in this multi-cultural, interdisciplinary study. It has been translated into Russian and Farsi (Persian).
