The major work of one of the most authoritative Western scholars of Buddhism, this is a thorough and accurate exposition of the Prasangika-Madhyamika view of emptiness - the subtle view of the highest philosophical school.
Hopkins gives an overview of the entire Buddhist path making this an important reference work. In bringing this remakable and complex philosophy to life, he describes the meditational practices by which emptiness can be realized and shows throughout that, far from being merely abstract, these teachings can be vivid and utterly practical.
"Meditation on Emptiness stands out as one of the great classics of the academic study of Buddhism in the West." Professor Jose Cabezon.
"The most important work on Tibetan Buddhist thought in a Western language. It has certainly raised the study of Madhyamaka Buddhism to a new level of sophistication." Professor Paul Williams.
