Ashutosh Singh –
The book is alright. It gave me some insights, but I found it difficult to follow certain arguments. It seems like the author had some good points, but the delivery fell short for me.
Ashish Kumar –
A must-read for serious students of Buddhism. Dube’s deep dive into the Kathavatthu is unparalleled. This book is scholarly, well-written, and well-researched.
Vikrum Singh –
I was hoping for a more engaging narrative. The book felt a bit academic and less accessible. Still, a worthwhile read if you’re deeply interested in the subject.
Khushi Kaushik –
Dube’s book offers a valuable perspective on the doctrinal debates within early Buddhism. The new material on Mahayana is a welcome addition. Highly recommended.
Lakshay Khare –
Dube’s work is a significant contribution to the field. The updated edition is an improvement over the original. It does require close reading and some patience.
Aashish Kumar –
Good book for understanding early Buddhism. The language can be challenging for those new to the topic. Make sure you have some background knowledge before diving in.
Anuj Goyal –
An essential read for anyone studying early Buddhism. Dube expertly navigates the complexities of the Kathavatthu. A bit dense but worth the effort.
Naman Kumar –
A comprehensive exploration of the cross currents of early Buddhist philosophy. Dube’s analysis is thorough and insightful. It’s scholarly and well-researched.
Rajat Srivastava –
Cross Currents in Early Buddhism provides a detailed look at early Buddhist thought, but it could be hard to follow if you are not familiar with Buddhism.
Bhavya Goel –
A decent overview of early Buddhist thought. The Kathavatthu analysis was insightful, but the writing could be a bit dry at times. Overall, informative but not captivating.
Mrityunjay Singh –
I found this book to be quite informative, but the writing style was a bit too academic for my taste. However, I have learned a lot about early Buddhism through this book. I’d recommend this for scholars.
