MELVIN MCLEOD : TWENTY-FIRST-CENTURY BUDDHISTS IN CONVERSATION

Twenty-First-Century Buddhists in Conversation collects the very best of the round-table discussions recorded in the pages of Buddhadharma magazine for over a decade. These conversations among a who’s who of contemporary Buddhist teachers, ranging over topics from student-teacher relationships to the place of prayer and the leadership roles of women in modern Buddhism, are always lively and insightful. With participants such as Bhante Gunaratana, Shohaku Okumura, Sharon Salzberg, John Tarrant, and Jack Kornfield, discussions equally represent old-school and newly emergent Buddhist traditions.

Contributers include: Sharon Salzberg, Bhikkhu Bodhi, Jack Kornfield, Joseph Goldstein, Bhante Gunaratana, David R. Loy, Robert Thurman, Yongey Mingyur Rinpoche, Anne Carolyn Klein, B. Alan Wallace, Taigen Dan Leighton, Andrew Olendzki, Reginald Ray, Ringu Tulku, and many more.
