Book Giveaway! Buddhism in America, by Richard Hughes Seager
Over the past half century in America, Buddhism has grown from a transplanted philosophy to a full-fledged religious movement, rich in its own practices, leaders, adherents, and institutions. This week, in observation of Asian Pacific American Heritage Month, we’ll explore the traditions of the emerging Asian immigrant population, native-born converts, and old-line Asian American Buddhists with a look at the revised and expanded edition of Buddhism in America by Richard Hughes Seager. Fill out the form below for your chance to win a copy of the book and check back on tomorrow for a guest post from Seager himself, and on Friday for an excerpt.
