Description
This section briefly reviews the argument of the whole book in practical assessment of Sangharakshita’s thought, and anticipates a range of likely objections. The overall legacy of Sangharakshita is profoundly mixed, though also one of substantial achievement. It is one that is badly in need of continual but balanced critical analysis.
