Pema Chodrum is an American Buddhist, in the Tibetan Buddhist tradition. She speaks with humor and gentleness, in a contemporary voice. This book is written in short chapters. It hasseveral chapters on emotions, which I found really enlightening. Quite friendly and accessible. Might even get one started meditating. — Judith
