I was hearing NPR this morning - I did not get the name of the author however the topic was how human consciousness has evolved over centuries from hunters to religion to theology to philosophy to psychology to empathy.
And how we extend it to various groups - The concept of empathy started in late 20th century and earlier it extended to groups which people could relate to but then extended beyond religious boundaries and cultural boundaries. And in last five years it is extending beyond humans in general to other mammals.
