'THE VALUES COMPASS takes us into the hearts, minds, and traditions
of the cultures and people of the world. It demonstrates how
interconnected we are and how the divisions that exist between us
stem from narrow self-interest rather than concern for the good of
our human family. I hope that the book will contribute to making
our world a happier place.' The Dalai Lama 'THE VALUES COMPASS is a
fresh, engaging and eye-opening guide to understanding ourselves
and others in the most profound and practical ways.' Deepak Chopra
Every day, whether we acknowledge it or not, we make decisions
based on what we believe in. The choices, challenges, or
opportunities facing us - and how we engage with them - in
politics, family, relationships, work, and play reveal something
important about our character, desires, and personality to
ourselves and to others. When those values align and are shared by
a single population, they have the power to transform a nation and
teach the world valuable lessons about success. In THE VALUES
COMPASS, Mandeep Rai explores this concept by taking 101 distinct
countries and identifying a single key value in each that is
represented throughout its history, geography, and culture in the
hope that we may find a way to incorporate those values into our
own lives. From India's 'faith' to Vietnam's 'resilience',
Argentina's 'passion' to Singapore's 'order', Australia's
'mateship' to Uganda's 'heritage' and from Malta's 'community' to
Sri Lanka's 'joy', we may all find something of ourselves in others
and succeed together as a result. This is an insightful and
readable collection of profiles that open our eyes to the world
around us, and in turn help us reflect on which values matter,
last, and have the power to create change.
