520 $a"An End to Suffering is a search to understand the Buddha's relevance in today' world, where religious violence, poverty, and terrorism prevail. Traveling extensively through the West as well as the East, Pankaj Mishra explores the myths and places of the Buddha's life, examines the West's 'discovery' of Buddhism, and considers the impact of Buddhist ideas on modern politics. The result is the most ambitious, convincing book on the Buddha that we have."--p.4 of cover.
