The author covers the history of Buddhism from the birth of Siddhartha Gautama to Buddhism in the world today. It also discusses the differences between different schools of Buddhism especially The Mahayana and Theraveada schools, festivals celebrated in the Buddhist world, etc. However, I felt as though something was missing. I was looking forward to seeing what are some of the daily practices of a Buddhist, what is a day in the life of a monk like, etc. which aren't really covered that well in the book.
