A book you can use over and over again, about 100 some lists, with the most important lists explained in detail. Very good reference.
Marie (Seattle, Washington)

Wonderful explanations of the Buddha's lists. The author explained it extremely well. I love the use of plain english and putting the explanations in language anyone can understand. The author is a scholar and highly educated, but unlike other scholars who write books, this author wrote in plain language, easily understandable and digestable. I highly recommend this book to anyone seeking the Buddha's wisdom or anyone who just wants a better understanding of the Buddha's teachings.
Nancy Benton (Olympia, Washington)

This book is a valuable reference. I refer back to it all the time. I even keep a copy next to me when I meditate.

I have this author's other dharma book, Right Understanding in Plain English and this Buddha's Lists book is even better. It has more information, is much longer, and more insights.
Jon (Albuquerque, New Mexico)

The author has read through and cites numerous Buddhist books, including the scriptures of Buddhism. He has sifted through all of that material and presented an overview and analysis not found in other Buddhist books. In effect, the author has done all the research and you get to see the results without having to go through all of those other books and the Buddha's discourses. The scriptures of Buddhism are too long to go through. In this book the author does all the work for us and presents Buddhism in easy to understand terms and backs it all with science and scientific method. Excellent, now I don't need to read much else on Buddhism unless I have the time!

You were so kind enough to send me this dharma book at no charge as I am an indigent inmate.  Thank you, thank you, thank you!  I’m on my third reading of it right now, then I’m sharing it with my Buddhist Study Group we have here in prison.

It is one of the best books on Buddhism I have read.  It has insights I’ve never seen before in Buddhist literature.
