An eminently readable, complete summary of all the essentials of Buddhist teaching and practice, Buddhism Explained is useful both for those wanting an understandable introduction to the subject and experts wishing a comprehensive but brief reference. It covers topics as diverse as meditation methods, the daily life of Buddhist monks, and the meaning of profound concepts such as Nirvana. The use of Thai, Pali, and Sanskrit terms has been kept to a minimum, with clear explanations of those included.

This translation of the Dhammapada verses is the third revision of a work which appeared originally in 1966 under the title Growing the Bodhi Tree. Unlike most English translations of the Dhammapada, this work is a poetic rendition of verse into verse while preserving the original meaning, this revision uses the Sanskrit rather than Pall forms of Buddhist terms and non-sexist language. An introduction to the Buddha's teachings precedes the verse translations.
