Synopsis

The Buddha was born in India 2500 years ago. This book describes his life, who he was and what he did. It explains how he found the 'Middle Way', what he taught his followers, and about the holy books that contain his teaching. There is also information on Buddhist sacred places, festivals, and how the Buddha's work has lasted to the present day. This differentiated (simplified) text edition of Great Religious Leaders: The Buddha and Buddhism concentrates on how the Buddha's teaching influences people today and thus makes a great introduction to this important world religion.

Author Bio
Ruth Nason has been involved in Religious Education publishing since the early 1980s when the major World Religions became increasingly part of the school curriculum. She has edited and written many books on world religions, including for Batsford Educational (in the 1980s), Oxford University Press Educational Division, Wayland and Evans Brothers. She therefore has close contacts with RE advisers and with educational representatives of the world faiths in Britain. Her work in this area of publishing has led to a lively interest in 'interfaith relations'.
