Hello, thanx Esho. But I have misunderstood my friend's request. He actually asks about "in depth Theravada" book. so do you know any? Thank you

Hi padma,

Highly recommendable:

1."The Buddha's Ancient Path"

2."The Word of Buddha"

3."Handbook for Mankind"

4."The Four Noble Truths"

Numbers 1, 2 and 4 are excellent because they show direct quotes of what Buddha really taught.

Number 3 is a Theravada approach to what Buddha taught. Excellent teacher & excellent text.

All four are direct to the issue of what Gotama Buddha's teachings are really about.
