Paul Ekman Ph.D.
Two leading thinkers engage in a landmark conversation about human emotions and the pursuit of psychological fulfillment
At their first meeting, a remarkable bond was sparked between His Holiness the Dalai Lama, one of the world's most revered spiritual leaders, and the psychologist Paul Ekman, whose groundbreaking work helped to define the science of emotions. Now these two luminaries share their thinking about science and spirituality, the bonds between East and West, and the nature and quality of our emotional lives.
In this unparalleled series of conversations, the Dalai Lama and Ekman prod and push toward answers to the central questions of emotional experience. What are the sources of hate and compassion? Should a person extend her compassion to a torturer—and would that even be biologically possible? What does science reveal about the benefits of Buddhist meditation, and can Buddhism improve through engagement with the scientific method? As they come to grips with these issues, they invite us to join them in an unfiltered view of two great traditions and two great minds.
Accompanied by commentaries on the findings of emotion research and the teachings of Buddhism, their interplay—amusing, challenging, eye-opening, and moving—guides us on a transformative journey in the understanding of emotions.

Reseñas de la Crítica
“A rich feast for the mind... This is a singular meeting of two intellectual traditions--and two remarkable minds and hearts.” —Daniel Goleman
“A fresh, unique exploration of many subtle issues... on psychology and Buddhism... Full of... unexpected humor and tender surprises... They gently probe each other's system of thought with striking intellectual rigor.” —Shambhala Sun
“Their conversations touch on questions of emotional balance, anger, and the range and limits of compassion, but a brief review can hardly do justice to the range and depth of this fine book.” —Library Journal

The Dalai Lama's accounts are narrated by Richard Gene in awesome fashion.
The book concept is clear but I wouldn't recommend it as first read into emotional understanding.
Unfortunately this book is an abridged version of the print/kindle copy.
Nice brief narration of the book

Emotions unite and divide the worlds in which we live, both personal and global, motivating the best and the worst of our actions. They save our lives, enabling quick action in emergencies. Yet how we behave when we are emotional can make our lives, and the lives of those we care about, miserable. Without emotions there would be no heroism, empathy, or compassion, but neither would there be cruelty, selfishness, nor spite. Bringing different perspectives to bear;Eastern and Western, spirituality and science, Buddhism and psychology;the Dalai Lama and I sought to clarify these contradictions and illuminate some paths that might enable a balanced emotional life and a feeling of compassion that can reach across the globe.
Emotional intelligence!

Ekmans own reflections about both his life and research contribute to the everyday understanding of Buddhism.
Takes time to ease in but well worth it.

If you could sum up Emotional Awareness in three words, what would they be?

I can broaden one's point of view.Did Richard Gere do a good job differentiating all the characters? How?
It didn't sound like it was one guy talking the whole way through?What did you learn from Emotional Awareness that you would use in your daily life?
