ABSTRACT

It is a pleasure to contribute to this Festschrift honoring Professor Charles Prebish, a fellow graduate of the University of Wisconsin’s Buddhist Studies Program and colleague of many years. Dr. Prebish made his mark in Buddhist Studies with his early work on the Buddhist Vinaya and his later extensive treatment of the enculturation of Buddhism in the West. He deserves the gratitude and respect of our profession for his energetic contributions to electronic publishing and the Journal of Buddhist Ethics, his recent online textbook Buddhism-the eBook, and his editorial efforts in the publication of works on Buddhism.
