Preface by Edward Conze. 238pp, index, endpapers patchily browned, cloth very marked, name front pastedown, bookseller's stamp lower endpaper, dustjacket little soiled, edges lightly foxed, still a good copy overall. "The theme of this book is the contemporary situation of Buddhism in Burma. It has often been observed that Burmese Buddhism is composed of many heterogeneous elements. Dr. King is the first to demonstrate, in a way which strikes me as positively brilliant, that they all form one organic unity, from the quest for Nirvana to the worship of the Pagodas and Nats." From the glowing preface by Edward Conze. (When referring to this item please quote stockid 128431)
