CONTENTS: Preface. Table of Chinese Dynasties. Maps of Dynasties. Introduction, Growth and Domestication. Maturity and Acceptance. Decline. Conclusion. Glossary. Chinese Names and Titles. Bibliography. Index.

A precious contribution to Buddhistic studies . . . The first true history of Chinese Buddhism written in a Western language. Not only does it till an important gap in research, but it is composed and written in a masterly manner.
