#1 INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER • FEATURES EXCLUSIVE NEW MATERIAL ON THE TRUMP PRESIDENCY 
“Makes the case for unity in a world rife with divisions.” New York Times Book Review
In this brief yet profound address to global humanity, His Holiness the Dalai Lama of Tibet reveals that we all hold the seeds of world peace within us: “I see with ever greater clarity that our spiritual well-being depends,” the Nobel Peace Prize winner writes, “on our innate human nature, our natural affinity for goodness, compassion, and caring for others.”
Already a major international bestseller, An Appeal to the World, the new book by one of the most revered spiritual leaders of our time, outlines both the inward and outward paths to peace, addressing a wide range of contemporary topics—from the rise of nationalism, Trump presidency, refugee crisis, climate catastrophes, and materialism to meditation, universal ethics, and even neuroscience. Here is a small book that can truly change the world.

    ARE WE OPEN-MINDED or narrow-minded? Have we considered the big picture or only aspects of it? Do we think and act holistically? Do we really take a long-term view of things, or more of a short-term view? Are our actions really motivated by sincere compassion? Is our compassion restricted to our own families, friends, whom we can generally identify with? We need to think, think, think. And research, research, research. Essentially, ethics is about our mental state and not our formal religious affiliation. We need to overcome our personal limitations and understand other people’s points of view.

    YES, TO A certain degree. But in principle, religious and nonreligious people should work together in these modern times.

    The Iraq War, which George W. Bush began in 2003, was a catastrophe. This conflict still hasn’t been resolved to this day and has claimed the lives of many people.
