The Future Of Peace

The Future Of Peace

The Future Of Peace

On The Front Lines With The World's Great Peacemakers

BY SCOTT HUNT

Brief Description:
Scott Hunt spent years traveling to the world's trouble spots to glean wisdom from the world's great peacemakers. Here, while recounting the histories that aren't taught in textbooks, Hunt shares remarkable stories from such figures as Burma's imprisoned pro-democracy leader Aung San Suu Kyi, the Dalai Lama, leading Vietnamese dissident Thich Quang Do, primate specialist and humanitarian Jane Goodall, and Cambodian patriarch Maha Ghosananda. The book is both a message of hope and a call to action, exploring the implications of remaining steadfast to a vision of compassion.
