Todd Kashdan

Todd Kashdan is the author associated with [[TheArtOfInsubordination|The Art of Insubordination / 《不服从的艺术》]], the book discussed in 116.不服从的艺术:分享一些实战方法,还有力量. The source summary itself mostly calls him “the author,” but the episode foregrounds his book’s practical question: how can people dissent and defy effectively without reducing disobedience to posture or rage?

The episode also uses family anecdotes from the author as origin material. A childhood scene of questioning a rabbi and a grandmother’s advice to judge authority by actions rather than words become the source’s personal route into [[PrincipledDisobedience|principled disobedience]].
