		<description><![CDATA[In Savor, Thich Nhat Hanh combines his wisdom with the expertise of the Harvard Director of Health Promotion and Communication, Dr. Lilian Chang.  Together they write about the ailments of unhealthy living, such as obesity, that plague so many people.

		<description><![CDATA[Speaking of Elaine Pagels, in order to prepare for my interview, I read and reread a lot of her work.  Her newest book (relatively speaking) is Reading Judas: The Gospel of Judas and the Shaping of Christianity, written with Karen L. King.

		<description><![CDATA[Of course, with the drive towards ereaders, the portability of a book might not be of consequence, but it&#8217;s fun to carry around a book of Jung&#8217;s writing like he&#8217;s your own personal guru.  Somebody tells you about an encounter or a dream or a movie, and you can say, hang on, let me consult [...]

		<description><![CDATA[This is an epic, character-driven, beautifully-written, philosophical, sad, political, morally-ambiguous, expertly-foreshadowed, thematic,hard to get immersed in, dramatic, ironic, difficult, sweeping book.

I both highly recommend it and did not love it.
It&#8217;s one of those books that is worth reading, but for me at least, it took a really long time.  The language was so beautiful, so thoughtful, [...]

		<description><![CDATA[I love Thich Nhat Hanh.  I really do.  But there&#8217;s something about reading a book, and thinking, haven&#8217;t I pretty much already read this in his other books? that gets annoying.

Such happens for prolific, philosophical writers.
This book was put together from sermons and writings by Thich Nhat Hanh around Christmas time, at Plum Village, France, [...]
