‘The Dalai Lama has said in public that he is “half-Marxist.” This book, “The Buddha on Wall Street” will help explain what he means. This is a fierce no-holds-bared Buddhist based critique of the dehumanizing and dysfunctional effects of the capitalist economic system. And as the subtitle says, “And what we can do about it.” Maybe the Dharma has arrived in the West just in time. Read this book and see what you think.’ - Wes Nisker, founder of Inquiring Mind
‘”The Buddha on Wall Street” is an original, insightful, and provocative evaluation of our economic situation today. If you wonder about the social implications of Buddhist teachings, this is an essential book.’ – David Loy, author of Money, Sex, War, Karma
