Abstract: Abstract Growing up in Ethiopia and spending 15 years conducting international surveys of comparative educational progress left me with a global perspective and a commitment to universal quality of life. After retirement from teaching, my time has been devoted to research and writing about suffering and its alleviation. My last three books addressed these topics and I continue to apply a quality of life perspective in advancing our understanding of suffering and its relief.
