About This Item
404pp incl index, acknowledgments and notes. xxiv prelims. Light yellow staining from start to p4 and again from p 380 to end. Otherwise clean and tightly bound with no marking, inscriptions or annotations.
In March 2000 a week-long discussion took place between the Dalai Lama and a panel of distinguished scientists and philosophers about human behaviour. Daniel Goleman's illuminating account of this meeting offers fresh insights into how we can recognise and change the emotions that pose grave danger to our individual and collective fate.
Goleman weaves a compelling account of what these destructive emotions are. He discusses where they come from, how the human mind is shaped, how these impulses can be transformed and how otherwise they will threaten our safety and our future.

Soft-covers and hard-covers without Dj s are covered in adhesive plastic. While we have neither insects nor dampness in our shop, you might find that the total plastic cover keeps both at bay.

Any "plastic" is easily removable, it is not adhered to the book nor to the dust jacket. We do not use sellotape nor any other tape which discolours. We restore books where necessary and describe ONLY EXCEPTIONS to a perfect state. Faults in expensive books are described in huge detail. WHEN RESTORED the majority of "faults'' are visible only with great difficulty and certainly NOT in an image. To avoid misleading you we include few images. Please be guided by the very full descriptions. If no faults are described in a cheaper book, please be guided by the Condition. RESTORATION SERVICE. We restore any book younger than 1800 making your grotty, broken old books look like beautifully-cared-for precious old books. DUST JACKETS IN FACSIMILE.
