Then it must be by Lopez, who's been certifiable squirrel-food for years.
(Chasing the hot topic of the day is the other shoe dropping.) To the extent
he wants to his continue his post-colonial diatribe, he would have to insist
that Buddhism is NOT science. To the extent he wants to follow current hot
interest, viz. science (esp. neuroscience, etc.) and Buddhism / meditation /
physics / medicine / etc., he would have allow for crumbs and teasers. Is
that why it's squirrely? An agenda having nothing to do with either Buddhism
or science?

(Haven't seen the book or any blurbs, so this may all be irrelevant)
