Title: Violence and Compassion
Subtitle: Dialogues on Life Today
Description: French film writer Jean-Claude Carriere's conversations with the Dalai Lama cover the various issues and problems that challenge world civilization today - including women's rights, education, terrorism, the population explosion, environmental dangers, and an increase in both random and organized violence.

The Dalai Lama exhibits his characteristic warmth and clarity of thought throughout each of these discussions, but what is most valuable is his ability to cut through to the essence of each issue and offer insightful guidance. From these precious talks come profound wisdom and pragmatic challenges for humanity's move into the next millennium.
