User’s Reviews

Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:

⭐This looks to be a VERY interesting book. Readers should be aware that the print edition’s font size is something like 10 point. I wish I had bought the Kindle edition, whose font size, of course, you can modify. The publishers did no one any favors by selecting such a font size; true, it reduces the number of pages, but at the expense of greatly increasing the difficulty for some of us of reading it. None of this is any reflection on the content or the author; from what I’ve been able to read, it is an excellent, informative work. Just a cautionary note to prospective readers.

⭐Very good summary of recent updates and trends in the field of Theravada studies.

⭐Important book on Theravada. Delivered well.

⭐Rare in-the-field research information and excellent scholarship. Recommended for serious seekers and students of Theravada Buddhism.

⭐Best book about modern Theravada and its rare aspects.

⭐Tudo ótimo!
