Review by Library Journal Review

No non-Western spiritual leader of our time has commanded more respect than the 14th Dalai Lama, a tireless advocate for the liberty of his native land of Tibet as well as a first-rate ambassador for Tibetan Buddhism. He has also been a prolific spiritual writer, having authored more than 50 books. This book is an anthology of his writing, yet because his thought is all of one piece, it does not seem in any way like a grab-bag of excerpts but a coherent vision of the world. This is perhaps the place to begin for most readers or the best single choice for a library selecting one title by the Dalai Lama. Highly recommended. (c) Copyright 2010.
