Loving Kindness Meditation

What is Loving Kindness (mettā) meditation and how did it develop? Many people today practice a form that probably originated centuries after the Buddha's day.

I recommend Sharon Salzberg's great book Lovingkindness for a contemporary teaching on practice: http://amzn.to/2ypwYQe

Thanks to Andy Olendzki for his work on the historical roots of mettā meditation, from which I've drawn over the years. Needless to say any errors are my own!
