Pocket BUDDHA

In this concise, accessible and life-enhancing book Tony Morris takes us to the heart of the Buddha's story. How much do we really know about this extraordinary man who was born into luxury but gave it all up in pursuit of truth? What did he teach? Why was he visionary? And why has his message never been more urgent or relevant than it is today?

'I believe that every human being has an innate desire for happiness ... I also believe the the very purpose of life is to experience this happiness.'
The Dalai Lama
