Verified Purchase
I bought this book after being introduced to Dependent Origination (DO) in John Haspel's excellent book "The Truth of Happiness." John has a chapter on DO and I had a reasonable idea of what DO was before I read this book, but I was hoping an entire book would provide additional insight into DO. However, I was disappointed; the book was fine, but I got no more depth out of this entire book then I got out of John's chapter (and, to be fair, subsequent discussions with John).
If you know nothing about DO, this is probably a fine introduction. If you are already familiar with DO, I would pass on this book.
