"Wonderfully curated and intelligently arranged, the volume brings together a number of renowned scholars whose original research contributions both sketch out salient features of text, practice, art, institution, and sect within the broad scope of the Buddhist tradition and which do so with careful attention to the current state of, and research trends within, the field of Buddhist studies."
