Talent for Humanity: Stories of Creativity, Compassion, and Courage oleh Thierry Sanchez

Our world today is in a state of deep uncertainty and turmoil. Often we feel hopeless, powerless, frustrated and afraid. Is there really anything we can do? Can one person make a difference? Can we actually change the world—by changing ourselves? The seven men and women in this book have done just that. What their life stories show is that any human being who is inspired and motivated can do incredible and creative things that can help transform the lives of others. Our story-tellers are ordinary people, who achieved exceptional things. Let them take you on a journey of compassion and creativity, from revolutionary Iran to Skid Row in Los Angeles, from a Native American reservation in Montana to Norway and Great Britain, from Palestine and Israel to the slums of Calcutta and the Sochi Olympics. The message of their stories? That each and every one of us can make a difference, and give someone hope, courage, love and vision. Could your story be next?
