Mindfulness and Money : The Buddhist Path of Abundance

Summary: Their feet are on the ground
Review: There are several reasons why this book is worth reading. First, when the authors speak about bread, you can see the dough on their hands--they have breadth, so to speak, of experience. They speak with authority.
Second, they explain some complex Buddhist doctrines in such a way that teenager would be able to understand them, while at the same time, a PhD would be able to appreciate them.
Third, they vivify their ideas with an abundance of living examples. Any seasoned public speaker will testify to the effectiveness of examples: people remember the examples long after the principles have been forgotten. These examples help us to see what is going on in our own lives. They show us our lives through the lives of others.
Last, they write in a style which is pleasurable to read, literate without being in any way stuffy. It's the style of grounded intelligence.
I am confident that other readers will find additional reasons for appreciating this book.
