The Force of Kindness: Change Your Life with Love and Compassion Book

This book has a lot of highlightable and quotable passages that are worth thinking about at greater length. It does suffer, to an extent, from the same problem that other books based on Buddhist teachings do, namely the abstract quality of the writing. Salzberg was right to keep the book short for this very reason. She also has more concrete books, Real Happiness: The Power of Meditation being an excellent guide to meditation and seeking the freedom in letting go of negative emotions and embracing lovingkindness and other meditation techniques.
