Passionate Enlightenment by Miranda Shaw
This treatise challenges Western assumptions concerning medieval Tantric Buddhism. The author draws on interviews and archival research to demonstrate that Tantric beliefs promoted co-operative relationships between men and women and relied upon women as a source of spiritual insight.-
