But looking beyond the latest fashionable issue, Tibetan Buddhism is part of a practical tradition that is full of useful wisdom for those in the West. Here, Sangharakshita, the British author of this down-to-earth guide, passes on the benefits of the considerable time he has spent with Tibetan lamas in an introduction to the origin and history of Tibetan Buddhism.
