"Some profound ideas on reducing suffering in our own lives and in the world, living in a spirit of unity and harmony, and developing greater empathy and compassion. I particularly enjoyed reading the hundreds of stories which were shared in the book by people whose lives have been transformed by service."
"Puts you in touch with what trust and unconditional love is all about. A must read for all those in the helping professions. A gentile, tender, and spirtual book, that will touch your heart."
"This book is made up half of real-life stories of people trying to help others in all different ways (peace corps, social workers, doctors, caring for family members, volunteering at nursing homes, etc) and half of the authors' analysis of the psychology of helping. The stories were amazing and made the book worth reading. I could barely get through the analysis and ended up skimming parts of it."
