Clark Strand's Waking the Buddha offers an absorbing, perceptive look at the often-misunderstood Soka Gakkai International movement and at how it is redefining not just the practice of Buddhism but religion itself. An eye-opening book, both fascinating and important.-Dinty W. Moore, author of The Mindful Writer: Noble Truths of the Writing Life
A practical guide for anyone searching for the answer to the question: 'How can I incorporate Buddhist principles in all aspects of my life?' If your practice is waking up, this book is for you-Koshin Paley Ellison, Co-Founder, New York Zen Center for Contemplative Care
One of the great challenges that religions face is translating timeless wisdom into timely action for this day and age. No Buddhist tradition has done this as successfully as the SGI, and this book examines the history and future of the movement. A must-read for anyone interested in Buddhism and its transmission.-Varun Soni, Dean of Religious Life, University of Southern California
