Review:

I have not really studied Buddhism well.  I thought that this was going to be more of a book about meditation than it was.  I find some of the terms familiar (e.g., dharma) and others very unfamiliar.  There is a certain assumption that these terms are at least familiar and, at best, well understood.  I’m not sure that I will ever study Buddhism sufficiently well to find the terms needed to truly appreciate this book sufficiently well understood.
