From the rear cover

'The Living Buddha' is a biography with a double focus. It is at once a vivid historical narrative based on what is known or can be reasonably surmised about Shakyamuni's life and times, and an inspiring account of a heroic life dedicated to helping all people free themselves from suffering.
