Summary: The book for understanding American Buddhism in 1999
Comment: The book is offers an overview of the major type of Buddhism available in the US. It charts the conflicts, changes and continuity of American Buddhism looking at a major world religion meeting the late 20th century's dominate power.IMHO the best essays are "Who is a Buddhist" where the author explains "Elite, Ethnic and Evangelical" Buddhism. Rita Gross "Helping the Iron Lady Fly" she lays out her opinion on the state of current sexual morality and its intersection with the Mentor-Disciple relationship.I had hoped to read an essay from someone related to the Interracial Buddhist Council, with regard to Elite Buddhism relationship to ethnic minorities.
