4.0 out of 5 stars Good introduction for beginning students of Buddhism, October 13, 1998
By 
Marc E. Ferguson (Easthampton, MA USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Buddhism: A Modern Perspective (Paperback)
This is a very good introduction to the history, major schools, and philosophical doctrines of Buddhism. Particularly good on the Madhyamika school of Mahayana Buddhism. An extremely useful antidote for all of the "inspirational" books on Buddhism which line the shelves of bookstores, but leave the beginning student with a confused, anti-intellectual, and Pollyanna view of Buddhism, particularly among misguided adherents of American "anything goes" Zen. This will give the beginning student a solid grounding for his/her practice.
