I recommend Sangharakshita's book as the best survey of Buddhism. --Dr Edward Conze, author of 'Buddhism: Its Essence and Development' and translator of 'Buddhist Wisdom Books and The Perfection of Wisdom in 8,000 Lines'

Simply the most complete single volume survey of all the major doctrines and traditions in the development of Buddhism. --Buddhist Peace Fellowship

A considerable achievement of Buddhist scholarship... this book can be heartily recommended to readers of all schools of thought. --The Middle Way
