Buddhism For The Modern Skeptic
Greetings everyone,
I just thought I'd let you know that a small text I authored called Buddhism For The Modern Skeptic is now being hosted at
Just Be Good
http://www.justbegood.net/Downloads.htm" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
(Just scroll down to the E-Books section to find it)
When developing this text, I was mindful to keep it generic enough so it's applicable (as far as I can make it) to all forms of Buddhism.
Metta,
Retro.

Kindly,
Laura

Congratulations!
I took the liberty of announcing it at Dhamma Wheel too.
I just finished reading it the other day and it is great!

Greetings,
Thanks Laura, thanks David.
David ~ If it would slot in anywhere amongst your myriad websites, feel free to plug it in there too. There's certainly nothing exclusive about the distribution channels.

I was feeling bad that justbegood.net beat me to it, but now feel better that I can distribute it too!

Re: Buddhism For The Modern Skeptic
Looks good after a very cursory read. But I find useful, even in a short work, an outline of contents at the beginning. Gives one a thumbnail of the key ideas.retrofuturist wrote:Greetings everyone,
