"I'm continually amazed at how Thich Nhat Hanh is able to translate the Buddhist tradition into everyday life and make it relevant and helpful for somany people. Cultivating the Mind of Love just might be my favoritebookof his."

-NATALIE GOLDBERG

In Cultivating the Mind of Love,Thich Nhat Hanh gives a most unusual Dharma teaching: the story of his first love. He pair these personal memories with his insightful commentaries on classic Buddhist teachings including the Diamond, Lotus, Avatamsaka, and Vimalakirti Sutras. In combining personal experience and Dharma teachings, Nhat Hanh allows his readers to experience and to appreciate what is human and wonderful in all of us. He shows us how to cultivate our own "mind of love" and bring joy and hope to our selves and those around us.

THICH NHAT HANH is a Vietnamese Buddhist monk whose lifelong  efforts to generate peace and reconciliation moved Martin Luther King, Jr. to nominate him for the Nobel Peace Prize in 1967. He travels regularly, leading retreats on the art of mindful living. He lives in southwest France, where he teaches, writes, and gardens.He is author of Energy of Prayer, Being Peace, and many other books.

"Sensuous, mysterious, rhapsodic ...

It transports the reader to another world, and uncovers that world's connection to our own."

-San Fransisco Chronicle

With ravishing beauty and unsettling intelligence, Michael Ondaatje's Booker Prize-winning novel traces the intersection of four demaged lives in an Italian Villa at the end of World War II. Hana, the exhausted nurse; the maimed thief, Caravaggio; the wary sapper; Kip: each is haunted by the riddle of the English patient, the nameless, burned man who lies in an upstairs rooms and whose memories of passion, betrayal, and rescue illuminate this book like flashes of heat lighting.

"A tale of many pleasure-an intensely threatical tour de force."

-The New York Times Book Review

"Jacob's Room (1922) comes as a tremendous surprise. The impossible has occurred.The style closely resembles that of Kew Gardens. The blobs of colour continue to drift past, but in their midst, interrupting their course like a closely sealed jar, rises the solid figure of a young man. In the sense jacob is alive-in what sense any of Virginia Woolf's characters live-we have yet to determine. but that he axists, that he stands as does a monument is curtain, and where ever he stands we recognize him for the same and are touched by his outline. The coherence of the book is even more amazing than its beauty. In the stream of glittering similes, unfinished sentences, hectic catalogues, unanchored proper names, we seem to be going nowhere. Yet the goal comes, the method and the matter prove to have been one, and looking back from the pathos of the closing scene we see for the moment the airy drifting atoms piled into a colonade. The break with Night and Day and even with The Voyage Out is complete. A new type of fiction has swum into view ..."

-E. M. Forster

Virginia Woolf (1882-1941) was internationally acclaimed as a novelist, critic, and stylist.

'The ideas in this book have a hook you won't forget; the end of poverty

... in Jeff's hands, the millstone of opportunity around our necks

becomes an adventure, something doable and achievable' BONO

WE CAN END POVERTY BY 2025 ...

AND CHANGE THE WORLD FOREVER.

For the first time in history, our generation has the opportunity to end extreme poverty in the world's most desperate nasions. but how can we stop the cycle of bad health, bad dept and bad luck that holds back more than a billion people?

Jefrey D. Sachs, Special Advisor to UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan and probably the most important economist in the world'(THE NEW YORK TIMES) has the answers. He has travelled and worked in over 100 countries across the globe-from Afrika to India, Pland to Bolivia-advising leaders on economic development and proverty reduction.

Here he lays out how proverty has been beaten in the past, how-in realistic, attainable steps-we can make real difference for the one-fifth of humanity who still live in extreme poverty, how they can find partnership with their wealthy counterparts to escape the poverty trap, how little it will actually cost, and how every one can help.

THE END OF POVERTY IS A ROADMAP TO A MORE PROSPEROUS AND SECURE WORLD.
