Engaged Buddhism: The Dalai Lama's Worldview - Bharati Puri. Published by Oxford University Press India, Hardback (illustrated boards) with dust jacket, 2006. This volume elaborates on, examines, and understands the Dalai Lama's thought on various current issues such as non-violence, human rights, and the political issue of the autonomy of Tibet. It was one of the first books, in spite of the range of books on the Dalai Lama, to actually seek out the conceptual foundations of his thought. His thought extends to the arena of international politics and human relations. Allusions to other thinkers and writers have been made in order to draw parallels to the thought of the Dalai Lama. Such a comparative approach helps to bring out the significance of the eclectic dimensions of the Dalai Lama's thought. The author collates in this work perhaps the most comprehensive bibliography ever put together of the Dalai Lama's works. She also provides the entire transcription of an interview with the Dalai Lama which she conducted personally in August 2001. Also found inserted in the book: a newspaper article from the Independent, 2007 about the Dalai Lama. Condition: Good. The pages are clean and tightly bound. The dust jacket is a little curled at the edges, where there are a few spots of grubby marking.
