Employing an impressive range of scholarly tools, Elverskog paints a fascinating portrait of Uyghur Buddhism, demonstrating that the Uyghurs were not simply bystanders as Buddhism made its way along the Silk Road from India to China. They developed their own important tradition of Buddhist practice, one that had largely been forgotten, until now. -- Donald Lopez, University of Michigan
