Review:
''...this stands as one of the most comprehensive and detailed studies of the history of the literature of this most puzzling and controversial of the early schools of Buddhist thought. Anyone wishing to learn about the doctrinal contents of the texts of this school of thought, could not do better than consult this volume. I will turn to this book again and again n the future as a source book of information concerning the Pudgala Vadins.'' - --Hsi Lai Journal of Humanistic Buddhism
