a simple, clear comparison of Buddhism and Christianity

I love this little book for its simplicity and clarity, as well as for the warm conversational voices of the two characters. Using the literary device of an imagined meeting between Buddha and Jesus (and ignoring the time/space warp such a meeting would have entailed), this text, written like a dialogue, finds the common ground and highlights the differences between the philosophies and teachings of these two great spiritual teachers. Other texts may go deeper, but this one has much charm and provides an excellent window into the two traditions of Buddhism and Christianity.
