Publisher's summary

The popular guide to living with kindness now includes a new chapter, introduction, and exercises in this tenth anniversary edition.

When The Power of Kindness first appeared in 2006 it thrilled and challenged listeners with one audacious promise: Your acts of generosity and decency are the secret to a fuller, more satisfying life. Kindness is not some squishy virtue but the very key to your own happiness.

With nearly 125,000 copies sold, we're celebrating the book's tenth anniversary with this new edition, featuring a complete new chapter by Piero Ferrucci on the theme of "Harmlessness", which joins his other chapters on virtues such as "Honesty", "Warmth", and "Loyalty". In addition, Ferrucci contributes a substantial new introduction and selection of techniques, meditations, and exercises. This tenth anniversary volume is perfect for new listeners and for lovers of the original who want to re-experience its wisdom and power.

My favorite book in the world. Seriously.

I love this book so much. I read it at least once a year. The audio book didn’t disappoint. The reading of it was great!

Wonderful

Very calming. The narrator was easy to listen to and I listened in the mornings over coffee and while I was driving in my car. I loved it.

Peaceful kindness

I found this book to be peaceful. Not every word was, but the message I got was so good. There are ways to be kind, and ways people have been kind, that are caring but without fanfare. I listened to the book twice because I liked it so much.

Rare book of wisdom

Thoughtful and interesting book. Sometimes seems too idealistic
One correction needed: The terms monastery and monk are not used by Jews.

One of the best books I've read

This book was so beneficial. Very straightforward. Practical wisdom. It should be required reading for everyone.
