Lord Buddha’s teachings have a great importance today for the common people to live in peace and to maintain brotherhood in the society. The aim of the present work is to take different ideas and conceptions found in Pali writings and present them to the reader in English. The work also contains original Pali texts along with its translations. The book is divided into five chapters and more than one hundred sections. The selections of the first chapter are on the Buddha; next follow those which deal chiefly with the doctrine; while others concerning the order and secular life constitute the closing chapter of the book. The uniqueness of the work lies in the selective presentation of the materials and their systematic organization. The book is accompanied by introduction, preface, bibliography and general index. Besides appendices, an addition of glossary of Buddhist technical terms is also a notable feature of this work. Hence, this new and enlarged edition would be immensely useful for the students as well as researchers of Pali and Buddhism. Besides, it will also serve a much larger purpose.
