AN INTRODUCTION TO
BUDDHISM
In this new edition of the best-selling Introduction to
Buddhism, Peter Harvey provides a comprehensive
introduction to the development of the Buddhist tradition
in both Asia and the West. Extensively revised and fully
updated, this new edition draws on recent scholarship
in the field, exploring the tensions and continuities
between the different forms of Buddhism. Harvey
critiques and corrects some common misconceptions
and mistranslations, and discusses key concepts that
have often been over-simplified and over-generalized.
The volume includes detailed references to scriptures
and secondary literature, an updated bibliography and
a section on web resources. Key terms are given in Pali
and Sanskrit, and Tibetan words
are transliterated in the most Peter Harve> is Emeritu
