This is a nice little treasure to have on any bookshelf. Told in a straightforward style that describes one concept per page, this book could be described as baby steps towards the cessation of suffering.

As such, this is probably not the best place to start if one wants to first learn about Buddhism. Rather, I think this book is more for the practitioner who wants to revisit concepts that in themselves could be the basis for multiple lectures.
