 Barnes & Noble.com - Books: The Next Enlightenment, by Walter Truett Anderson, Hardcover
Anderson offers a skillful and mostly successful re-description of the "Eastern" enlightenment experience-which dissolves or at least softens the boundaries of self-in terms accessible to Western philosophy and science.
Anderson is widely read and strikes a good balance between clarity and accuracy, with the exception of some cheap shots at "organized religion," which come off like dogmatic anti-dogmatism.
Anderson shows clearly how this view has emerged and how it is supported by both Western scientific findings and Eastern spiritual traditions, such as Buddhism, and where it might be leading.
