I was not shocked when he acknowledged his Soka Gokkai faith in his afterword. But I guess I'm glad to learn more about SGI, and it was probably good to get a perspective on Tibetan Buddhism as it relates to other Buddhist histories and practices.

Religion & Spirituality.
Nonfiction.
HTML: Approximately four million Americans claim to be Buddhist. Moreover, hundreds of thousands of Americans of various faiths read about Buddhism, are interested in its philosophical tenets, or fashionably view themselves as Buddhists. They're part of what's been described as the fastest-growing religious movement in America: a large group of people dissatisfied with traditional religious offerings and thirsty for an approach to spirituality grounded in logic and consistent with scientific knowledge. The Star Spangled Buddhist is a provocative look at these American Buddhists through their three largest movements in the United States: the Soka Gakkai International, Tibetan/Vajrayana Buddhism, and Zen Buddhism.
