Razor-Wire Dharma

Book excerpt: For Calvin Malone, staying true to his principles of altruism, compassion, and nonharming often requires he quite literally jeopardize life, limb, and the few small comforts available to him in order to do what's right. Calvin is nearing the end of a twenty-year prison sentence; he's also a practicing Buddhist. And remarkably, it was in prison that Calvin learned about Buddhism.
