Many people in the west are not accustomed to Buddhism or the practices. Unfortunately, many of the so called religious people (christians, muslims, and jewish people) do not fully understand compassion, nor does their religion teach it completely and without dogma as Buddhism does. This book is a must have for everyone that has even been angry even once in their life. It outlines what many Buddhist practice and provides a clear and concise path to replacing anger with compassion.

Inspirational "quick" read!

This book was inspiring, yet very short. I found that this title isn't one of Nhat Hanh's better books...but if it's your first time with one of his titles than I would recommend it.

Good

Great things to say in this book... I was a little disappointed to find that it's just a compilation of quotes from his other books (many of which I have already read). It is just one quote per page... felt a little gypped... not a bad book for daily meditation though.

Taming the Tiger Within is a handbook of meditations, analogies, and reflections that offer pragmatic techniques for diffusing anger, converting fear, and cultivating love in every arena of life-a wise and exquisite guide for bringing harmony and healing to one's life and relationships.

Acclaimed scholar, peace activist, and Buddhist master revered by people of all faiths, Thich Nhat Hanh has inspired millions worldwide with his insight into the human heart and mind. Now he focuses his profound spiritual wisdom on the basic human emotions everyone struggles with on a daily basis.
