The Illustrated Encyclopedia of Buddhist Wisdom by Gill Farrer-Halls
Those living in Western cultures often describe Buddhism as the fastest-growing religion in the West, because the teachings address the issues of materialism and the existential dilemmas so often experienced in modern life. This reference book offers a practical introduction to Buddhism. It traces how the different traditions arose in countries as diverse as Tibet, Sri Lanka, Japan, China, Korea, Burma, Thailand and Vietnam, and how the teachings developed in harmony with these cultures, giving each a unique appearance.
