Description: This accessible volume covers both the teachings of the Buddha and the integration of Buddhism into daily life. Words such as "karma" and "nirvana" have entered our vocabulary, but what do they really mean? Keown has taught Buddhism at an introductory level for many years, and in this book he provides a lively, challenging response to frequently asked questions.
