Written as a companion to Eliot's 3-volume "Hinduism and Buddhism,"
this title begins with a brief survey of Buddhism as practiced in
India and China before delving deep into the history of Buddhism in
Japan. It traces the evolution of the Buddhist movement in Japan
from its "official" introduction in AD 552, through the Nara, Heian
and Tokugawa periods, detailing the rise of the various Buddhist
sects in Japan, including Nichiren and Zen. Thoroughly researched
and well-written, it was the last work published by Eliot, one of
the great scholars of Eastern religion and philosophy at the time.
