A Compassionate Life in 12 Steps: A Vook by Karen Armstrong

From the author of A Case for God and History of God, a vook on leading a compassionate life. Some of you might remember Karen Armstrong’s keynote speech upon receiving the TED Prize, in which she encouraged the audience to help her build a Charter for Compassion. Watch the video here:

However, compassion manifests itself in the world not by thinking but by doing. Now you can learn how to live more richly and compassionately by reading Karen Armstrong’s instructive thoughts on the ethical life, all while watching compelling videos that show you how to implement her teaching in your daily routine. The vook, A Compassionate Life in 12 Steps, is available for download from vook.com.

Here are a few videos to illustrate what you’ll find in this vook:

Armstrong will expand on the themes and topics of this vook in a book to be published by Knopf in December. Click here for more details.

    Is this really a “VOOK” or is it a book? Check the title and the content of the “article”

  2. pcortland says:

    A Compassionate Life in 12 Steps is definitely a vook—you can find out more about vooks here. However, Twelve Steps to a Compassionate Life, which will be released by us in December, is a traditional hardcover book.
