Reviews
"The Oxford Handbook of Meditation offers ample resources that provide a useful overview of important questions currently being discussed in the field of meditation studies: the promise and limits of empirical research, the possibility of a transcultural science of meditation (and the risks necessarily involved in such a project), and comparative concerns about "meditation" across cultural and disciplinary boundaries. It can serve as an introduction to the field of meditation studies as well as provide direction for future research. Serious readers will no doubt agree that the Handbook successfully follows through on its promise to feed the wonder and desire to know of a wide audience of specialists and non-specialists alike." -- Journal of Contemplative StudiesThe Oxford Handbook of Meditation serves as an excellent introductory-level course handbook for religious studies. It strikes a balance between academic rigor and accessibility, making it valuable to a broad audience, including scholars of medicine, psychology, and religious studies, as well as individuals interested in exploring the subject or deepening their knowledge of meditation practices." -- Zsuzsanna Szugyiczki, Religious Studies Review, The Oxford Handbook of Meditation offers ample resources that provide a useful overview of important questions currently being discussed in the field of meditation studies: the promise and limits of empirical research, the possibility of a transcultural science of meditation (and the risks necessarily involved in such a project), and comparative concerns about "meditation" across cultural and disciplinary boundaries.
