Here is a rare overview of the second of the three great phases of Buddhism which blossomed across Asia, particularly in China, Japan, Korea, and Tibet. In this detailed exploration of the development and expression of the Mahayana as a whole, Nagapriya introduces its themes and huge spectrum of practices, literature, and movements.
