'Thich Nhat Hanh shows us the connection between personal, inner peace and peace on earth' The Dalai Lama

A definitive book on peacemaking from the brilliant Thich Nhat Hanh. In this remarkable manifesto he shows conflict to be an inappropriate response that we can no longer afford on a personal or global level. He also offers practical - previously unpublished - spiritual training for individual and world peace which reveals the powerful daily actions and interactions that can root out conflict from us all.
