Buddhism as Psychology: Happiness and Inner Peace

Buddhism is coming to the West as a powerful psychology, filled with ancient wisdom. Mindfulness is now fully incorporated into a number of psychotherapies. Buddhism is taking the West by storm, in part because its metaphysics are not dependent on a belief in a God.This book is designed to be a simple, non-scholarly introduction to Buddhist psychology. Therefore, technical words are kept to a minimum, and when they are used, they are explained in everyday English. This goal of keeping it simple matches the goal of keeping it practical.
