The book is based on the idea that increasing our global interconnectivity implies the need for harmonious communication and shared ethics that contribute to making our globalized world a more peaceful place. Thich Nhat Hanh leaves Buddhist terms behind to offer his input in creating a global, uncategorized plan of action that overcomes deep-seated divisions. He also develops a new formulation of the five precepts for the practice of mindfulness, adapting them to the practical needs of modern life. It includes the full text of the United Nations Manifesto 2000, which declared the will to create a culture of peace and transform violence for the benefit of the children of the world.
