Críticas

"A superb collection. Not only does this book fill a long-vacant gap, but the quality of work is astonishingly high."
-San Francisco Chronicle

"As this collection reveals, women's perspectives are significantly expanding the American Buddhist agenda. A path-breaking anthology."
-Shambhala Sun

"Dresser has astutely laid out the parameter of contemporary Buddhist thought. This book is important reading regardless of your spiritual tradition or perspective. These essays pose questions at the very heart of existence, morality, and prosperity for thoughtful Americans living into the 21st century. Don't miss this one!"
-Bloomsbury Review
