An account of the ethical systems of the East and West, with illustrative readings. ""Kenneth J. Saunders (1883–1937) was a British theologian and scholar known for his studies on Eastern religions, particularly Buddhism and Hinduism. Born in England, Saunders studied at the University of Cambridge and later became a Christian missionary in India, where he developed an interest in Indian religions and culture. Saunders authored several books, including "The Heart of Buddhism" and "The Story of Buddhism," which aimed to provide clear and accessible introductions to Buddhist teachings for Western readers. He also served as a lecturer in Comparative Religion at the University of Manchester. Although Saunders was a Christian missionary, his approach to studying other religions was characterized by respect and a genuine desire to understand different faiths. His work bridged the gap between Western and Eastern religious thought, making a significant contribution to the study of comparative religion." /
