Thich Nhat Hanh has been the world's foremost peace activist for the past four d
ecades. A highly respected Buddhist spiritual leader who is also a philosopher,
scholar and student of human nature, he is, in many ways, very similar to the Da
lai Lama. His unrivalled knowledge, wisdom and experience of peacemaking - a sub
ject that he has very much made his own ever since he took a non-violent stance
on the Vietnam War - make him the perfect candidate to talk authoritatively on t
his very topical subject.
