Descrizione
What does it take to make political work a mission of peace? Victoria Stoklasa, author of SIGN IT INTO LAW and TRANSGENDER MARRIAGE RIGHTS IN TEXAS, presents an accessible guide to using the teachings of Buddhism to make the world a better place. By following the tenets of the Noble Eightfold Path, citizens and politicians alike can change their thinking and their actions to follow a middle path--no extremes, so suffering. This quick read continues Stoklasa's tradition of accessible political thought and common sense policymaking, and it serves as a complement to any campaign or election.
Here's what people are already saying about BUDDHISM AND POLITICS:
"Despite being neither an expert in Buddhism or politics, I came away enlightened by the content of this book...I urge you to read this book. Even if you haven't the slightest idea about Buddhism and perhaps a vague idea about politics, you will benefit from it." - Reed James, "Reed's Reads"

Transgender Marriage Rights in Texas
Available for FREE at Barnes & Noble and Smashwords.
The author really provides a well thought-out and compelling essay about the limited (and possibly quickly dwindling) rights of transgendered people in Texas, allowing the reader to get the facts and arguments for/against the possible removal of those rights.

Sign It Into Law: How to Put Your Petition on the Ballot
Available at Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and Smashwords.
Each page leaves you with something you didn't know before or hadn't considered before…Let's be honest: there's only so much spice and zest you can inject into describing government processes, but Victoria manages to do a good job of keeping your interest.
