Thorsons, 2025

In this unique book, His Holiness the Dalai Lama tells the full story of his 75-year struggle with China to save Tibet and its people. Instant New York Times Bestseller The Dalai Lama has had to contend with the People’s Republic of China his entire life. He was 15 years old when communist China invaded Tibet in 1950, only 19 when he had his first meeting with Chairman Mao in Beijing, and 24 when he was forced to escape to India and became a leader in exile. Almost 75 years after China’s initial invasion of Tibet, the Dalai Lama has faced communist China’s leaders – Mao Zedong, Deng Xiaoping, Jiang Zemin, Hu Jintao and Xi Jinping – in his effort to protect Tibet and its people. In Voice for the Voiceless, the Dalai Lama reminds the world of Tibet’s unresolved struggle for freedom and the hardship his people continue to face in their homeland. The book captures his extraordinary life, uncovering what it means to lose your home to a repressive invader and build a life in exile; dealing with the existential crisis of a nation, its people, and its culture and religion; and envisioning the path forward. Voice for the Voiceless is a powerful testimony from a global icon, sharing both his pain and his enduring hope in his people’s ongoing quest to restore dignity and freedom. In his latest work, the Dalai Lama offers a personal and political narrative that is both enlightening and heartbreaking. His memoirs provide a unique insight into Tibetan history, Buddhist philosophy, and the ongoing struggle for freedom. For fans of B. Alan Wallace (Where Buddhism Meets Neuroscience), Thubten Chodron (The Foundation of Buddhist Practice), Daniel Goleman (Leadership That Gets Results), Haemin Sunim (When Things Don’t Go Your Way), and Deepak Chopra (Creating Affluence).
