Reviews
"Scholars of East Asian religions and Buddhism will find a range of inspiring scholarship here." — Religious Studies Review
"This book focuses on the much-neglected role of Chan in guiding an international movement of Buddhist philosophy and practice throughout East Asia. The extensive bibliography is itself an invaluable research tool for scholars, drawing on both recent publications and traditional texts. The editors and contributors deftly challenge 'biases inherent in Zen Studies' through approaches that draw on materials that have been overlooked or ignored. The result is a much richer and complex view of Chan and Sŏn Studies reaching beyond long-prevailing, simplistic assumptions about Zen Studies." — Sandra A. Wawrytko, coeditor of Dao Companion to Chinese Buddhist Philosophy
