Critics Review

Wise and compassionate - DAILY EXPRESS

Some fascinating fresh insights … Those who confuse the Dalai Lama’s affability and simple-heartedness for a lack of intellectual rigour will be confounded by the strength of his reasoning, and no one can deny his argument that science should serve us all … a fascinating account of an intellectual journey from the rooftops of Lhasa to the modern world - SCOTSMAN

The lucidity of the writing is a joy, and conveys with simple elegance profound truths from both traditions. For those wishing to understand the nature of reality, this is an excellent work - THE MIDDLE WAY: JOURNAL OF THE BUDDHIST SOCIETY
