This excellent book might be thought of as a larger version of Edward Conze "Buddhist Scriptures", which is not available in Kindle at this time (hint to Amazon!). "Buddhist Texts Through the Ages" is a wonderful resource for those meditators not turned off by what can seem to be pretty strange stuff. I got the paperback decades ago, and recently picked up the electronic version for the Kindle emulators on my PC and phone.
This is the real deal, actual Buddhist texts as written long ago. Modern humanists should try "suspension of disbelief" for a while and give it a try. This is not Buddhism for Dummies, or new age happy talk / positive thinking. I strongly recommend that it be read in conjunction with something like Thich Nhat Hanh's "Miracle of Mindfulness" which is authentic hard core Buddhism, but wisely written for our times.
