Once again, the editors of Shambhala Sun have gathered together some of the best in contemporary Buddhist thought and writing.

2010’s anthology covers such wide-ranging topics as death, food and eating, and even a comparison of Zen to Alice in Wonderland from such luminaries as Thich Nhat Hanh, Sylvia Boorstein, Sakyong Mipham Rinpoche, and a host of others. As with the collections of past years, The Best Buddhist Writing 2010 represents a timely and insightful addition to the collection of any Buddhist practitioner or scholar.
