This book is an excellent, simply, well-written, clear-cut introduction to Buddhism. What are the basics. Buddhism 101. It's very wonderful, and I learned a great deal from it. Some of the books is written in a question and answer style, and I found that very appealing based on the subject matter. Some of the sections seemed a bit odd to me, but I imagine that they are there for other people.

I would highly recommend this book to pretty much everyone. You should at least know about one of the world's major religions, even if you don't care to follow the tradition at all.
