Dr. Paul Dahlke in his learned Buddhism and Its Place

in the Mental Life if Mankind (Macmillan, 12s. 6d.) deals with the constituents of actuality, dependence, simultaneous arising, rebirth, nirvana and cognate subjects, familiar only to students of the doctrine of the Awakened One. Perhaps the most interesting chapter in an interesting but difficult book is that on nutrition as a living experience.
