Loyalty Demands Dissent

Sulak Sivaraksa of Thailand was nominated twice for the Nobel Peace Prize, and is one of Asia's leading Buddhist thinkers and social activists. These memoirs explore a life rooted in the Buddhist middle way through the stormy passage of 20th-century Thailand. They weave together family history, basic Buddhism, and education abroad with the fabric of difficult times. We see through his own eyes Sulak's indomitable way of pulling people together into common work and community, a lesson that encourages many of us in our own country and time.
