Buddha, Volume 1: Kapilavastu : (Buddha), Osamu Tezuka

	I did not know the French soldier's name and he did not know mine, but when we met we were already enemies. He came and was prepared to kill me for our food, and I had to comply with his order to protect myself and my fellow monks. The two of us were not, by nature, enemies. Under different circumstances, we could have become close friends, even loving each other as brothers. It was only the war that separated us and brought violence between us. This is the nature of war: it turns us into enemies. People who have never met kill each other out of fear.
	— Thich Nhat Hanh, Creating True Peace : Ending Violence in Yourself, Your Family, Your Community, and the World submit an excerpt

Welcome to BookProject

The BookProject website is a tool for circulating issue-oriented books and DVDs. That is, people can use our website to follow the travels of books and DVDs they circulate among friends and beyond.

Our website also provides an open, non-commercial platform for people to read and post book and DVD reviews.

In addition to our tools for individuals, we provide a chapters feature for groups. Any group of people, such as a group of friends or a community group, can create a private chapter on our website. Within a chapter, the group can maintain a central reading list, exchange book and DVD reviews, and post announcements.

Finally, our website provides a place for groups and individuals to publish reading lists.

All BookProject services are free. We are volunteer-run. We do not sell books (or anything else). We do not accept advertising.

If you are new to BookProject, we invite you to visit our welcome page for an overview of our website and our purpose in creating it.
