The Secrets of Buddhist Meditation is an exacting and exemplary piece of scholarship in every respect. It converses critically with current work on Indian Buddhist literatures and newly discovered manuscripts, the genesis of apocryphal Chinese Buddhist scriptures, the transmission and translation of Indian Buddhist sutras in early medieval China, and revisionist writing on the formation of Chan and other schools of Chinese Buddhism. Moreover, it does so with extensive immersion in the latest scholarship in all of these areas.--Daniel Stevenson, University of Kansas Unquestionably, this book is a great contribution to our knowledge of medieval Chinese Buddhism as a whole. Eric Greene's work is clearly of a very high standard.--Stefano Zacchetti, University of Oxford
