When it arrived; I glanced through it and found myself surprisingly intrigued. The artwork is beautiful and captivating. Then I actually read it and had to buy him another new copy so I could keep mine. This is a beautiful; well-written book that takes you on a journey with Sakyamuni Buddha; founder of Buddhism; without sounding like a text book. It opened a door for a peek at a religion with many schools of thought of which I was totally ignorant. I highly recommend it.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. colorful panorama of buddhist world artBy Customeroverview of buddhist art from around the world with many examples ;with lots of color pictures; broad outline of different cultures.6 of 7 people found the following review helpful. Good overview; but don't buy for the photosBy Ignatz97I purchased this without having looked at it first; and while it does seem to be a competent overview of the subject; I think many people might want to consider something with better quality photography. That's a big reason for buying such a book; but many photos are grainy or oversaturated. I think there are better examples of this type of book; although the price is very reasonable.
