en Limba Engleză Paperback – 30 sep 1998
Continuum congratulates Rita M. Gross on being the recipient of the 1999 Choice Outstanding Academic Book Award.As a practicing Buddhist for over 20 years, Rita Gross is concerned with how Eastern wisdom traditions transform our lives, and are themselves transformed by contact with the wisdom of the West.Rita Gross considers "lifestyle" issues, from conception to death and grieving; social issues such as population control, work and family, and environmental ethics; and theological issues such as the use of goddess images in Buddhism, and several fascinating practices from Gross's own Tibetan Vajrayana Buddhist tradition.

Recenzii

"A treat and a challenge, this book is highly recommended ... a very special contribution to the field." -Library Journal
"Rita Gross must be commended for her 'soaring' and dynamic presentation of the continuing impact of Buddhist tradition on contemporary America. This book is a valuable study for those interested in gender studies and the modern interaction between Indic religions and indigenous American culture." --James Kenneth Powell II, International Journal of Hindu Studies, 1999
