The Buddha: Life and Afterlife Between East and West
Almond, Philip C. (University of Queensland)
Philip Almond's engaging new book is the first to combine a history of early traditions about the Buddha's life with an account of how he and the philosophy inspired by him went 'global'. It shows how the enchanted mythological figure of Buddhism became the disenchanted historical Buddha of the West.
