Lionel Blue has brought comfort, humour and enlightenment to many through his books and his morning radio talks, Pause for Thought and Thought for the Day. In Tales of Body and Soul, he reflects on life's difficulties, tackling thorny subjects such as physical disability, racial prejudice, sexuality, hatred and fear. The questions he asks are challenging and basic. How do we find self-worth when we no longer have a job? Where should we look for genuine happiness? Can we keep our integrity in the midst of the rat race? And how do we recognize what we really believe in? Having met all these issues head-on in his own life, Lionel Blue has hammered out a personal creed through a lifetime of helping others. With common sense and gentle good humour, he passes on these reflections to help others in the search for their own answers.
