Critic Reviews

Thich Nhat Hanh is a holy man, for he is humble and devout. He is a scholar of immense intellectual capacity. His ideas for peace if applied, would build a monument of ecumenism, to world brotherhood, to humanity.
He shows us the connection between personal, inner peace, and peace on earth.
Hanh doesn't limit his task to discussing anger between families and friends; he also deals with anger between citizens and governments. That expansive vision is not surprising (Hanh, after all, is a Nobel Peace Prize nominee) but it is refreshing, lifting this book out of the self-absorbed, self-help pile.
Reminding us that small spiritual matters are really large spiritual matters, the author offers wisdom and serenity to comfort readers as they work through anger to a place of 'being peace.

Life changing skills, the key to peace.
We all have issues of anger, whether we are aware or not. Thich Nhat Hanh is a master of teaching the path to personal, and thereby universal, peace.
Ill be listening to this over and over and over. It works.

A few hours into this book and I had to give up on it. There were limited lessons and insights to draw from it, and certain points were repeated again and again. I have read/listened to other great books based around Buddhist teachings, but unfortunately this one did not resonate with me.
