Women on the Buddhist Path

Outstanding book published in 1996 by Thorsons Publishing. Martine Batchelor's "Women on the Buddhist Path" consists of eighteen chapters, each a dharma lecture or narrative by highly-competent Buddhist leaders and thinkers who happen to be female as well. Additionally the work contains an introduction, references and glossary. The chapters are well-referenced and informative.Readers should be aware that this book was published virtually verbatim as "Walking on Lotus Flowers," also in 1996 and by Thorsons. While this publishing gaffe is not explained, the content of the work is exceptional in both books! Readers who had purchased the same text twice due to the title confusion should pass one copy on to their sisters. (Or even their brothers!)
