[ SOLD OUT ] RITZINGER, J., Anarchy in the Pure Land. Reinventing the Cult of Maitreya in Modern Chinese Buddhism. Oxford University Press, 2017. 352p. Hardback. This book sheds new light on the origins of Humanistic Buddhism, the Tantric Revival, and contemporary Sinic Buddhism. It also adds nuance to our understanding of Taixu's modernism.
