The Wisdom of the Buddha (New Horizons)

In the sixth century BC, a prince from northern India left family and fortune in search of answers to the great questions of life and death. Siddhartha Gautama, known as the Buddha, the ''Enlightened One'', laid down a doctrine that soon spread all over the world. The Wisdom of the Buddha explores the life and teachings of this remarkable man and searches back through history and legend to examine the philosophy that illuminates the way for more than three hundred million people today.
