A review by jeff_holt_4
Confession of a Buddhist Atheist by Stephen Batchelor

3.0

As a huge fan of "Buddhism Without Beliefs: A Contemporary Guide to Awakening" and "Living with the Devil: A Meditation on Good and Evil," the early part of this book will be a revelation of how Batchelor came to the brilliant insights in those books. However, that's what it reads, primarily, as autobiographical background. For me, it lacks the thrill of the direct theorizing that fills the other two books. Therefore, I have put this one down indefinitely.
