This is a fascinating and informative guide to the Buddhist faith, from the life of the Buddha through to modern-day Buddhism.

The book opens by exploring the roots of Buddhism through the Buddha's life and teachings, and then explores the practice of Buddhism today, and how the Buddhist faith is followed and interpretated around the world.
