<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>Now in paperback, this practical guide to cultivating compassion delivers Buddhist and psychological insight right where we need it most--navigating the difficulties of our daily lives. </p><p>Compassion is often seen as a distant, altruistic ideal cultivated by saints, or as an unrealistic response of the naively kind-hearted. Seeing compassion in this way, we lose out on experiencing the transformative potential of one of our most neglected inner resources.</p><p>Dr Lorne Ladner rescues compassion from this marginalised view, showing how its practical application in our life can be a powerful force in achieving happiness. Combining the wisdom of Tibetan Buddhism and Western psychology, Ladner presents clear, effective practices for cultivating compassion in daily living. </p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"An important addition to the growing literature on the meeting of Buddhist practice and Western psychology."--<em>Library Journal</em><br><br>"A helpful, kindhearted, articulate teaching of the way of compassion.
