Easy and Effective
As far as books on Buddhism goes, this is simple, effective ans easy to comprehend. It doesn't take much to realise what His Holiness is stating and his approach to compassion is one that can easily be applied to life.
It's a small book, but with plenty to say, and as an initial guide to altruism, it is highly useful.
