To say that Buddhists do not believe in a soul is an overstatement. Some prefer to say that Buddhists believe in the Latinate "consciousness," as opposed to the Anglo-Saxon "soul." As I remember, early Buddhist theologians, and no, they were not monotheists, differentiated themselves from Hindus by coining the phrase "anatman," or not self, in distinction to the Hindu "atman," or self, to emphasize its lack of "inherent" existence, or existence outside of consciousness. They did not declare that they did not believe in the existence of an atman, or a self. Buddhist frequently must differentiate themselves from "Nihilists" on such matters. This books is good starting point for detangling this semantic knot, and resolving related, central issues for oneself in the process.

I think that Dalai Lama is a Spiritual Leader regardless of the your or my Religion. He is a very smart guy and that is the reason why we have to read it. An Advise: Always read and Listen to the smart people. They have almost always something important to say that might change you life forever.
