The 14th Dalai Lama

Spiritual Leader of Tibet

Spotlight On Civic Courage: Heroes of Conscience

As the spiritual and political leader of Tibet, the fourteenth Dalai Lama, Tenzin Gyatso has endured exile, censorship, and persecution. Yet through it all he has remained a champion of freedom for the people of Tibet, and, by extension, all humankind. The history of Tibet, China relations, and tenets of Buddhism serve as a backdrop for the story of how one man, acting on deeply held beliefs and principles, has become a hero worldwide. Supplemental digital materials, including timelines, biographies, and primary source documents and visuals, interspersed throughout the book's digital version add depth and context.
