Stephen Levine
Foreword by ondrea Levine
In his long career as a poet, Buddhist teacher, spiritual advisor, and

dying. In Becoming Kuan Yin, Levine’s first new book in many years,
he turns to the legend of Kuan Yin, the Bodhisattva venerated by East
Asian Buddhists for her compassion.
In Becoming Kuan Yin, Levine shares the tale of Miao Shan, born
centuries ago to a cruel king who wanted her to marry a wealthy but

The Dalai Lama on What Matters Most includes the Dalai Lama’s
thoughts on:
• embracing anger to precipitate social change,
• the role of competition in spiritual life,
• conditional versus unconditional love,
• soulless materialism, and
• exercising self-restraint in his position of power.
This book offers a unique perspective on the Dalai Lama’s political and
spiritual views. One of the real pleasures of this book is His Holiness’

A Guide for the Bright, the Sensitive, and the Creative

But the nature of family, school, and work, the structure of society, and the

The challenges smart and creative people encounter—from scientific

How the Rigged Economics of Meat and Dairy Make
You Consume Too Much—and How to Eat Better, Live
Longer, and Spend Smarter
David Robinson Simon
"Retail prices of meat and dairy have fallen steadily for decades, driven by
producers’ practice of offloading their costs onto society. Thus, for each $1 of
eggs, meat, fish, or dairy sold at retail, the system imposes $1.70 in hidden costs
on consumers and taxpayers. One result of animal foods’ artificially low retail
prices is that Americans eat twice the meat that the USDA recommends and three
times the world’s per capita average, helping give us the world’s highest rates of
obesity, cancer, and diabetes.” —from the Introduction
