Book Synopsis Bhikkhuni Vinaya Studies by : Bhikkhu Sujato
Book excerpt: Although historically marginalized, Buddhist nuns are taking their place in modern Buddhism. Like the monks, Buddhist nuns live by an ancient system of monastic law, the Vinaya. This work investigates various areas of uncertainty and controversy in how the Vinaya is to be understood and applied today.
