Other Publications

The Society's own publishing activities date back more than 50 years. From time to time it publishes books and papers on Buddhism and related subjects. It has built up a small but select list containing several Buddhist classics such as The Dhammapada (Jack Austin ed.), The Diamond Sutra of Hui Neng (A.F.Price trans.), The Essence of Zen, Field of Buddhism (D.T.Suzuki) and Mainstream Buddhism (Eric Cheetam).
The Society’s most recent publication is the Suramgamasamadhisutra: The Concentration of Heroic Progress. This is an early Mahayana Buddhist scripture translated and annotated by Etienne Lamotte and translated for the first time into English by Sarah Boin-Webb (published by Curzon Press in association with the Buddhist Society, ISBN 0-7007-1024-8).
