About the Book

A RALLYING CRY FOR THE WHOLE WORLD, BY ONE OF THE MOST RESPECTED LEADERS OF OUR TROUBLED TIMES.

This eloquent, impassioned manifesto is possibly the most important message The Dalai Lama can give us about the future of our world. It's his rallying cry, full of solutions for our chaotic, aggressive, divided times: no less than a call for revolution.

Are we ready to hear it?

Are we ready to act?



About the Author :
One of the best-known global figures, His Holiness the Dalai Lama is the spiritual leader of Tibetan Buddhism and a powerful symbol of Tibet and its unique civilization. He is an important voice for compassion, and in recognition of his advocacy for world peace and environmental concerns, he was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1989. He has received numerous other international awards, including the highest civilian honor in the United States, the U.S. Congressional Gold Medal. Since being called upon to assume the leadership of Tibet, he has worked tirelessly for the freedom and dignity of his people. After fleeing into exile in 1959, the Dalai Lama has lived as a stateless Tibetan in India, a country he calls his second home. Sofia Stril-Rever has coauthored four books with the Dalai Lama (including his My Spiritual Autobiography, translated in some twenty languages). With lawyers of the Paris Bar, international climate experts and renowned scientists, she has initiated the Better We Better World training program (www.betterwebetterworld.org) to tackle environmental and societal challenges with the practices of compassion and universal responsibility, promoted by the Dalai Lama as keys to human survival in the twenty-first century.

His Holiness the Dalai Lama, Tenzin Gyatso, was born in 1935 to a peasant family in northeastern Tibet and was recognized at the age of two as the reincarnation of his predecessor. As the world's foremost Buddhist leader, he travels extensively, speaking eloquently in favor of ecumenical understanding, kindness and compassion, respect for the environment, and world peace. He is the author of over seventy books and has received a number of awards, honorary doctorates, and other accolades for his work. Edoardo Ballerini is a two-time winner of the Audio Publisher Association's Best Male Narrator Award, a two-time winner of Society of Voice Arts Awards, and was named a Golden Voice by AudioFile magazine in 2019.

Review :

"Fascinating....A global leader encourages young people to revel in the cause of peace."

-- "Booklist"

"Impassioned... An excellent introduction for those unfamiliar with the Dalai Lama's simple-seeming teachings for improving a complex, globally interconnected world."

-- "Publishers Weekly (starred review)"

"Like the Dalai Lama himself, Edoardo Ballerini's narration has a gentle steadiness that imparts a sense of quiet conviction and optimism. As His Holiness describes the trials he himself has faced and those he sees in the world today, Ballerini's narration captures his wisdom and peacefulness in the face of adversity. In these contentious times of hate-mongering rhetoric, armed conflict, and climate change, the Dalai Lama remains a comforting voice calling for the fostering of peace and dialogue."

-- "AudioFile"

"Powerful...Packed with wise advice and perceptive observations."

-- "Parade"
