Edward Conze cites another edition of this text many times in his famous work "Buddhist Thought in India," commenting frequently on the questionable translation and remarking that he hopes for a superior translation in the future. Perhaps Bhikkhu ...

The Blue Death: Disease, Disaster, and the Water We Drink13 reviews
Robert D. Morris

HarperCollins, 2007

Needs more on the role of population in water problems
Robert Morris' book is great for anyone who is interested in issues of drinking water supply and safety. For that reason I give it five stars. I was puzzled by a major omission. Morris mentions repeatedly that population growth is straining the water supply. Why is there no follow-up on this? In the book's conclusion, Morris makes seven proposals to guard against present and future ...
