Combines the voices of scholars and practitioners in analysing Buddhist women's history. 26 articles document the lives of women who have set in motion changes within Buddhist societies, with analyses of issues such as gender, ethnicity, authority, and class that affect the lives of women in traditional Buddhist cultures and, increasingly, the west.
Karma Lekshe Tsomo teaches at Chaminade University in Honolulu. She is secretary of Sakyadhita: International Association of Buddhist Women and director of Jamyang Choling Institute, an education project for women in the Indian Himalayas.
