Sumario:The impact of Eastern thought on the culture of the United States and Western Europe is now seen in the spread of Buddhism, meditation, martial arts, yoga, oriental art, and hundreds of other Asian imports.

Written during World War II, this classic work correctly anticipated the clash of eastern and western ideologies which has dominated the post-war landscape.
