Preface
Readers' Comments
This book is for those who are interested in Buddhist teachings and
all who seek routes to growth in human well-being, particularly
therapists, coaches, and scientists. It is a vanguard work that sets a
cultural revolution in motion by bringing the fruits of the Buddhist
heritage together with contemporary therapy, systematic research, and
postmodern thought. The volume contains 28 chapters by 38 contributors
from 12 countries, and introduces a range of useful practices, evidence
of their efficacy, and integrative theoretical deliberations. Its
contents move toward a climax called New Buddhist Psychology.
"Timely and intriguing, a comprehensive source for furthering mindfulness and joy."
-- Robert L. Leahy, President, International Association for Cognitive Psychotherapy.
"This volume marks a new level of maturity in the conversation between Buddhism and Western psychology."
--Paul Fulton, President, Institute for Meditation & Psychotherapy
