Abrams engineered a series of meetings between Archbishop Tutu and His Holiness the Dalai Lama—the last time the two would meet before Tutu’s death in 2021—and the resulting book was a \u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e bestseller that went on to sell over 1.2 million copies and inspired people around the world to find lasting happiness in their lives. And yet, in the midst of the Covid lockdown, when Doug’s daughter asked him a simple question—“Are we going to be OK?”—Doug was at a loss for how to reassure her, and himself. It sent him on a quest to mine the relationships he forged with some of the most influential visionaries of our time to make a compelling and durable case for hope. From scientists like Jane Goodall and Stephen Hawking to spiritual leaders like the Dalai Lama and Desmond Tutu to political leaders like Nelson Mandela, Abrams arrives at a more hopeful and empowering view of the future of humanity, inspiring readers to live with more joy and meaning in their own lives.","brand":"Douglas Abrams","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48267273371899,"sku":"9781966302377","price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/indiepubs.com\/products\/are-we-going-to-be-ok-9781966302377","provider":"IndiePubs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
