[Richard P. Hayes]

Timothy McNeill, Publisher/CEO of Wisdom Publications Inc., has asked me
to forward the following announcement, which should be of interest to
many of you.
=======================================================================

Teachers and Friends,


Wisdom Publications is pleased to announce its new paperback anthology
of the award-winning “Teachings of the Buddha” discourses series:


In the Buddha’s Words: An Anthology of Discourses from the Pali Canon

Edited and introduced by Bhikkhu Bodhi

Foreword by the Dalai Lama

496 pages, 6"x 9", ISBN 0-86171-491-1, US$18.95


In the Buddha’s Words is truly a landmark development in the
presentation of Buddhist thought in the West.


Initially conceived in response to requests from professors, this
collection organizes the wealth of the Pali Nikayas within a single
inexpensive volume that is ideal for course adoption. The ten thematic
chapters, each with a clear and thoughtful introduction by Bhikkhu
Bodhi, make the vast and ancient discourses accessible as never before. 


In the Buddha’s Words will be available mid-summer, in time for fall
classes. If you would like to receive a PDF file of the detailed table
of contents, prefaces, and introduction, simply email
wisdom at wisdompubs.org with the exact words “send pdf” in the subject
heading. The file you will receive can be opened with Adobe Acrobat
Reader.
