This story on CNN is an excellent analysis of how some come to lack empathy for their fellow human beings, and how through treatment, can come to experience empathy and greater depth in their relationships.  We all lack empathy at times…that’s just a result of being human.  And…sometimes, empathy is not what’s needed.  It’s not adaptive to always be empathic, but it’s good to recognize when it’s important to be empathic.
