Books: The Words of Peace, Fourth Edition: Selections from the Speeches of the Winners of the Nobel Peace Prize
Why I am recommending this book:I have been feeling for quite some time that examples of human compromise and cowardice, stories of hate and destruction, litter our mental space and aggressively vie for our attention. It just feels healthy to feed the soul words of peace and hope, courage and optimism, that we might begin to steer our collective ship in another direction, and settle on a more constructive course.
