"No major library or student of Zen can afford to be without these volumes, for they are a product of immense scholarship, summing up much of the mountain of studies of Zen. Dumoulin's volumes will provide initial guidance for many researchers in the future and will no doubt be seen as one of the pioneering classics in English in the field."

Dumoulin's work is a monument to the evolution of the image of Zen Buddhism within twentieth-century scholarship…as seen through the eyes of someone consciously striving to make Buddhism comprehensible to a Western Christian audience." John McRae.
