description: From back cover - The centuries following the Buddha's death saw a proliferation of schools that expanded his teaching about the cause of suffering and the way to emancipation, or enlightenment, into a weighty canon of doctrinal embellishment and exegesis. In Essentials of Buddhism Kogen Mizuno, one of Japan's most distinguished Buddhologists, provides a detailed guide to the evolution of the major forms of Buddhism and to their basic terminology and concepts.
