Book Reviews of Buddhism Plain and Simple

Book Review: A Good Start
Summary: 4 Stars

This is the first book I have read on Buddhism and I must admit that it was very enlightening. Steve Hagen, the author, is a zen priest and teacher. His insights into Buddhism are revealing and he presents them in a way that's easily understood. How do you perceive reality is a question that is explored here among others. This book elves into many subject involved in Buddhism and self enlightenment. It offers a short history of the Buddha himself. The author gives us a short, yet information packed book. A very good introduction from my perspective.
