Who was the man known as the Buddha?
What were his basic teachings?
How are these and the related teachings of Yoga relevant to our own daily lives?

The Positive Psychology of Buddhism and Yoga addresses these questions and more. It shows how the Eastern views of human nature are congenial with our own western psychological views. Both traditional Eastern methods and current psychological techniques are presented for enhancing the quality of our lives, for attaining to "a mature happiness." The general ideas are richly illustrated with Eastern tales, poetry, and personal anecdotes.

The central teaching is that one can improve one's life by changing one's self. A concluding section applies this lesson and the methods, Eastern and Western, to handling anger.
