I just finished this book. It's really good. It has tonnes of info, history and stories packed into a little book. I learned a lot.

Sharman is a beautiful person who skillfully combines art with social actions that benefit her world (and our world through her excellent example). Hand-wringing is not enough in the face of suffering. Action is required. Action is the only antidote to despair.
