Pico Iyer - The Man Within My Head (Random House, $25.95)
Travel writer Pico Iyer brings a unique perspective to the issues of cultural globalization. His essays appear in National Geographic Traveler, Time, and Harper's, and he has written a dozen books, including The Open Road: The Global Journey of the 14th Dalai Lama. Join Iyer and Traveler magazine's Don George, former global travel editor of Lonely Planet Publications, for a conversation about the challenges and rewards of letting yourself be vulnerable in foreign places.
Read notes from an earlier Nat Geo Live event with Pico Iyer and Don George and read an article by Pico Iyer from the New York Times.
