Reviews

'This book is a valuable contribution to the growing literature about women and Buddhism. It should be in all libraries with collections about Buddhism or gender studies in religion.' - Journal of the American Academy of Religion 'Kathryn Blackstone has offered scholars in the study of early Buddhism a valuable lesson ... I found myself happily convinced.' - The Tibet Journal
