(Disclaimer: This is NOT the original book, but an unofficial summary.)

Always feeling like you can't cope with this ever-changing World? Want to finally experience how lasting happiness feels like? The Book of Joy tells the story of 2 spiritual giants, Dalai Lama and Desmond Tutu and how they achieve lasting happiness in this ever-changing world. Truth is, most people misunderstand what Joy really means. It is far deeper than just wealth, fame, recognition and material possessions.

"If you think you are too small to make a difference, try sleeping with a mosquito." – Dalai Lama

Many of us get caught up in our day-to-day busy lives. Is being busy an excuse for us not to attain peace, courage and joy? Or do are we simply lacking some wise advice? Joy is rare in our Today's world. What is the essence of True Joy? How can we attain it?

P.S. If you've always been feeling stressed out, overwhelmed and defeated by life, this book will open up your pathway to lasting happiness.
