Review # 1 was written on 2014-05-31 00:00:00 William Wood Some very inspiring stories. The author's views come through somewhat in the interviews, but she is sincere enough that it didn't bother me too much. If I had to raise criticism, I would say is somewhat prone to equate Buddhism with Tibetanism, treating the many (legitimate) alternatives as oddities or even aberations. For instance she seems genuinely dumbfounded by Stephen Batchelor's skepticism of rebirth, while I would argue Batchelor merely takes the Buddha's teachings of non-self to their logical conclusion. But when all is said and done, this is an inspiring overview of some dedicated Western Tibetan Buddhists.

Review # 2 was written on 2009-07-17 00:00:00 Dan Miller Some interesting interviews with a wide range of Western background Buddhists over different traditions. Some well known, others not. Gives quite a good overview of the ways that Western people have taken on Buddhism and adapted some of the practices. It is good that the author also included both sides of views on issues such as karma, rebirth etc.
