Edition:  1st ed. Requests:  0 Summary:  This book is the first serious consideration of the Fourteenth Dalai Lama's work and ideas as a politician, scientist, and philosopher. Author Iyer has been engaged in conversation with the Dalai Lama (a friend of his father's) for three decades--an ongoing exploration of his message and its effectiveness. Now, Iyer captures the paradoxes of the Dalai Lama's position: though he has brought the ideas of Tibet to world attention, Tibet itself is being remade as a Chinese province; though he was born in one of the remotest, least developed places on earth, he has become a champion of globalism and technology. He is a religious leader who warns against being distracted by religion; a Tibetan head of state who suggests that exile from Tibet can be an opportunity; an incarnation of a Tibetan god who stresses his humanity. Iyer illuminates the hidden life, the transforming ideas, and the daily challenges of a global icon.--From publisher description.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Social Science & Philosophy 294.3923 Iy Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 294.3923 Iyer Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kaimuki Public Library Adult Nonfiction 294.3 Iy Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kalihi-Palama Public Library Adult Nonfiction 294.3923 Iy Checked In Add Copy to MyList Keaau P/S Library Adult Nonfiction 294.3923 Iy Checked In Add Copy to MyList Lihue Public Library Adult Nonfiction 294.3923 Iy Checked In Add Copy to MyList Liliha Public Library Adult Nonfiction 294.3923 Iy Checked In Add Copy to MyList Waikiki-Kapahulu Public Library Adult Nonfiction 294.3923 Iy Checked In Add Copy to MyList
