The Oxford Handbook of American Buddhism by Ann Gleig

The Oxford Handbook of American Buddhism by Ann Gleig

The Oxford Handbook of American Buddhism offers the most comprehensive and up-to-date scholarship available on Buddhism in America. It charts the history and diversity of Buddhist communities, including traditions and communities that have been previously neglected, and looks at the ways in which Buddhist practices such as mindfulness meditation have been adopted in non-Buddhist settings.

The contributors primarily are professors and other scholars, and the book makes a real contribution by presenting American Buddhism at the present and the near future* Choice *
