Buddhism in the Modern World explores the challenges faced by
Buddhism today, the distinctive forms that it has taken, the
individuals and movements that have shaped it, and the modern
history of Buddhism in different geographical regions. Part one
surveys the Buddhist tradition in different parts of the world,
from Southeast Asia to North America, while part two explores key
themes including globalisation, gender issues, and the ways in
which Buddhism has confronted modernity, science, popular culture
and national politics. Each chapter is written by a distinguished
scholar in the field, and is designed to offer a lively and up to
date overview of the subject. Students and scholars alike will find
this book an indispensable guide to the living Buddhist tradition
