Dr. Judith Orloff is a Board-Certified Psychiatrist and a member of the clinical faculty at UCLA. She is an author whose latest book is "The Genius of Empathy". The Dalai Lama wrote the foreword to the book saying: "Judith Orloff offers practical advice on how to cultivate and enhance empathy, which I believe readers will find of great value.
