For decades, the Dalai Lama has travelled the world. In each country, he saw similar problems: values that have helped the very rich to advance beyond the multitudinous poor, a disregard for the environment and governments in paralysis among them. Now, the Dalai Lama gives us his vision of a better future, one that prioritises the concerns of humanity at large, and explains how we can get there. He presents a new perspective on the world as we know it, one that can bring hope to millions and that has the potential to shape humanity's course in the twenty-first century.
