The result is a book which, while faithful to the Buddhist tradition, speaks unusually effectively to an English-speaking audience."--Huston Smith, author of <i>The World's Religions </i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Samuel Bercholz is the founder and editor-in-chief of Shambhala Publications. <p/>Sherab Chödzin Kohn is coeditor of the best-selling anthology <i>The Buddha and His Teachings</i>.
