Reviews
"This is an excellent cross-disciplinary study that makes a valuable contribution to Japanese Buddhist studies - one that serious scholars in this field should read... Highly recommended." - CHOICE"[T]he book's emphasis on contemporary practices and attitudes, its focus on some of the little-studied texts that underlie these things, and its attention to a wide range of icons are fresh and welcome approaches; the medieval rituals and the miraculous stories Horton presents about Buddhist images are valuable documents." - Fabio Rambelli, Sapporo University
