Summary: A Ground-Breaking Masterwork
Comment: I can only concur with Prof. Huston Smith, who writes about this book "This is the most comprehensive, engaging, and responsible treatment of the advent of Asian thought to the West that has ever been written -- 'Journeys East' will be indispensable for students of comparative religion".

This extraordinarily well written work ranges across enormous terrain covering more than 100 years of intellectual history reflecting the influence of Asian thought on major 20th century philosophers, artists, spiritual seekers and adventurers. Although it is a serious work of scholarship, reflecting astonishing depth and breadth of erudition and great sensitivity to the subject matter, it is also a highly readable book which will fascinate any reader who is even marginally interested the impact of Eastern thought on the Western mind.

Following Prof. Oldmeadow's previous introduction to the Traditionalist school, "Traditionalism: Religion in the Light of the Perennial Philosophy", this new work brings him into the ranks of the most important historians of religion in our day.
