Suzuki's style is excellent, he writes clearly, simply and eloquently and there is plenty of freshness in what he has to say.

Suzuki's contribution to the book, then, is a beautiful one, and I would say an excellent and accessible introduction to his works.

 Kyoto School - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Today, there is a great deal of critical research into the school's role prior to and during the Second World War.
There is also a great deal of criticism concerning the school's rather idealized and ahistorical understanding of the "East" and "Buddhism/Zen." Although Daisetz Teitaro Suzuki is often linked with the Kyoto school—and, indeed, was close to Nishida—he is not considered a member.
