Library to Host Author of “The World Peace Diet”

Tompkins County Public Library will host author and educator, Will Tuttle, for a discussion and signing of his best-selling book, “The World Peace Diet,” August 6 at 6 p.m. in the BorgWarner Community Room.

“The World Peace Diet” inspires readers to work toward a world of peace, freedom, wellness, and harmony and shares keys to positive individual and social transformation.  Tuttle’s library presentation will explore the unrecognized connections between culturally-mandated meals and a broad range of problems—psychological, social, and spiritual, as well as health and environmental.

A former Zen monk and a Dharma Master in the Korean Zen tradition, Tuttle is a recipient of the Peace Abbey’s Courage of Conscience Award and the creator of several wellness training programs.  His Ph.D. from the University of California, Berkeley, focused on educating intuition and altruism in adults, and he has taught college courses in creativity, humanities, mythology, religion, and philosophy.

This program is free and open to the public, copies of “The World Peace Diet” will be available for purchase at the event.
