520 "With more than 5,000 entries totaling over a million
words, this is the most comprehensive and authoritative
dictionary of Buddhism ever produced in English. It is
also the first to cover terms from all of the canonical
Buddhist languages and traditions: Sanskrit, Pāli, Tibetan
, Chinese, Japanese, and Korean. Unlike reference works
that focus on a single Buddhist language or school, The
Princeton Dictionary of Buddhism bridges the major
Buddhist traditions to provide encyclopedic coverage of
the most important terms, concepts, texts, authors,
deities, schools, monasteries, and geographical sites from
across the history of Buddhism. The main entries offer
both a brief definition and a substantial short essay on
the broader meaning and significance of the term covered.
Extensive cross-references allow readers to find related
terms and concepts. An appendix of Buddhist lists (for
example, the four noble truths and the thirty-two marks of
the Buddha), a timeline, six maps, and two diagrams are
also included."--Publisher's description
