Publisher's Comments
Theravadins from Sri Lanka; Vajrayana teachers from Tibet; Zen, True Pure Land, Shingon, and Soka Gakkai Buddhists from Japan; and two Chinese Buddhist organizations from Taiwan are among the examples of Buddhist missionary work around the world during the late 19th and 20 centuries. Anthropologists, historians, and religious scholars from the US, Britain, Australia, and Taiwan share nine papers they presented to an April 2000 conference in Boston.
