    Story

    This is a great book. It's probably not for beginners, but if you're serious about Buddhism, you'll definitely want to read this. Note the word READ. The narration of this book is TERRIBLE. Do you self a favor and pick up the old-fashioned paper copy.

    After 40 years of study with some of the greatest scientific minds as well as a lifetime of meditative, spiritual, and philosophical study, the Dalai Lama presents a brilliant analysis of why both disciplines must be pursued in order to arrive at a complete picture of the truth. Science shows us ways of interpreting the physical world, while spirituality helps us cope with reality. But the extreme of either is impoverishing.

    This is a terrific read for someone who is into both Buddhism and science and it's excellently read by Richard Gere.

    Living in a peaceful, prosperous African-American neighborhood in Los Angeles, Mack Street is a mystery child who has somehow found a home. Discovered abandoned in an overgrown park, raised by a blunt-speaking single woman, Mack comes and goes from family to family, a boy who is surrounded by boisterous characters and yet deeply alone.

    Story

    After listening to Ender's Game I was ecstatic to get my hands on this. I was disappointed. The story is interesting, the narration ok (when I'm awake). The problem is I keep falling asleep during this thing. Not so with Ender's Game. I was always dying to get back to it. Listening at my house, in the car, whenever possible. This one, I've started to put on as a sleep aid. I've had it for months and am still not finished. Seriously, I'm usually asleep in less than 5 minutes . . . and I used to call myself an insomniac. It may be a good read, but I wouldn't classify it as a top listen.
