About this title:

Synopsis:

A close analysis of the architecture of the stupa―a Buddhist symbolic form that is found throughout South, Southeast, and East Asia. The author, who trained as an architect, examines both the physical and metaphysical levels of these buildings, which derive their meaning and significance from Buddhist and Brahmanist influences.

Review:

"This volume is without a doubt the most complete presentation of this infinitely complex phenomenon."

(Journal of Asian Studies)
