Publisher's Synopsis
The first volume of Sangharakshita's 'Complete Works' includes two foundational texts that have inspired readers for decades: 'A Survey of Buddhism' and 'The Buddha's Noble Eightfold Path.' Of the first, the great Buddhist teacher and writer Lama Anagarika Govinda wrote, 'It would be difficult to find a single book in which the history and development of Buddhist thought has been described as vividly and clearly as this survey.'
