Commencement speakers--often distilling the hopes of parents and four years of messaging from educators--tell graduates that they must do something grand, ambitious, or far-reaching. Change the world. Disrupt the status quo. Every problem in the world is your problem, awaiting your solutions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book is an antidote to that advice. It provides a clear-eyed assessment of three types of people who tend to believe and promote a commencement speaker's view of the world: the \u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003emoralizer\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e, who imposes unnecessary social costs by inappropriately enforcing morality; the \u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003ebusybody\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e, who thinks the stranger and close friend merit equal shares of our benevolent attention; and the \u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003epure hearted\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e, who equates acting with good intentions with just outcomes. The book also provides a bold defense of living an ordinary life by putting down roots, creating a good home, and living in solitude. A quiet, peaceful life can be generous and noble. It's OK to mind your own business.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eJustin Tosi \u003c\/b\u003eis Associate Professor of Strategy, Economics, Ethics, and Public Policy at the McDonough School of Business at Georgetown University.
