Anything the current Dalai Lama has to say commands attention and interest, and it is difficult to think of another living Tibetan-or indeed any Nobel Peace Prize winner, living or dead-more bold and articulate. The Dalai Lama's most recent book, published to coincide with his 70th birthday, takes up the practice of compassionate love and is likely to prove one of his most enduring. As translator and editor Hopkins points out, the Dalai Lama's advice is deeply rooted in Tibetan Buddhist traditions yet free of intimidating names or inaccessible disciplines; these qualities should make it easy for many readers to approach the open and compassionate attention that makes for peace among people and nations. Highly recommended. Copyright 2005 Reed Business Information.
