Synopsis  
Few English language books focus on the basic teachings that join all Buddhists sects. This book provides lucid explanations of such fundamental Buddhist concepts as the Three Treasures, the seals of the law, the Four Noble Truths, the Eightfold Path, the law of causation, the Twelve-linked Chain of Dependent Origination, and the threefold learning--teachings that all Buddhists honor.
