This encyclopedia covers festivals, texts, doctrine, rituals, practices, biographies, deities and heroes, architecture, mythology, sects, and institutions of the religious tradition covered. Among the more than 1,700 entries are Dogen Kigan, Filial piety, and Shikhin Buddha. Much of the content consists of short, dictionary-type definitions, although some (for example, Bodhisattva precepts, Buddha, Pilgrimage) are more expansive. The illustrations are all black and white, occur on approximately one-quarter of the pages, and usually cover less than half a page. The entries include extensive cross-references, and the "Contents by Subject" at the beginning of the encyclopedia aids the reader in locating thematically related entries. The coverage of the subject areas is good.
The encyclopedia could have been greatly improved with the inclusion of glossaries giving the terms in the various languages involved. A glossary of Sanskrit, Chinese characters, pinyin and Wade-Giles Chinese transliteration methods, and transliterated Japanese would significantly increase the utility. Although the volume is adequate for the general reader, this conspicuous omission limits its usefulness for the more serious researcher.
