Teach Yourself Buddhism by Clive Erricker
Buddhism has many varied forms, which are now present in the West and which are growing in their variety as Buddhism adapts to its growing global presence and new cultural environments. Today Buddhism is a tradition influenced by its passage throughout Asia and now by its entry into Europe, Australasia and North America. With "Teach Yourself Buddhism", examine that historical journey for yourself, focusing on the value of Buddhism in the contemporary world and the persistent relevance of its teachings. You can discover the Buddha and his teachings, the diversity of Buddhism, Buddhist values and practices and the relevance of Buddhism in the modern world, in this book.
