With the three works collected in this volume, the Dalai Lama illustrates Buddhist thought to the Western reader. In “The way of liberation” the fundamental teachings of Tibetan Buddhism are clearly exposed and commented; with “The mind and the heart” the spiritual exercises are treated to awaken one's mind and prepare it for enlightenment. Finally, since to live a full and happy existence it is necessary to reach a state of total peace, with the latest writing "The joy of living and dying in peace" the reader faces the path to eliminate the suffering caused by continuous cycle of deaths and rebirths. A book that is proposed as an accessible guide not only to those who already follow the precepts of Buddhism, but to anyone who intends to approach it with the help of the teachings of its major representative.
