Leading scholars from North America, Europe, South Africa, and Australia explore the plurality and heterogeneity of traditions and practices that are characteristic of Buddhism in the West. This recent, dramatic growth in Western Buddhism is accompanied by an expansion of topics and issues of Buddhist concern. The contributors to this volume treat such topics as the broadening spirit of egalitarianism; the increasing emphasis on the psychological, as opposed to the purely religious, nature of practice; scandals within Buddhist movements; the erosion of the distinction between professional and lay Buddhists; Buddhist settlement in Israel; the history of Buddhism in internment camps; repackaging Zen for the West; and women's dharma in the West. The interconnections of historical and theoretical approaches in the volume make it a rich, multi-layered resource. 606 $aBuddhism$xMissions$xHistory 606 $aBuddhism$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aGlobalization$xReligious aspects$xBuddhism 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aBuddhism$xMissions$xHistory. 615 0$aBuddhism$xHistory 615 0$aGlobalization$xReligious aspects$xBuddhism. 676 $a294.3/09 701 $aPrebish$b Charles S$0920253 701 $aBaumann$b Martin$f1960-$0234335 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910450147403321 996 $aWestward dharma$92419559 997 $aUNINA
