Beating the Drum

Beating the Drum is a collection of editorials written between 1954 and 1964 for the leading Buddhist journal of the time. The themes are diverse and surprising, and just as relevant to men and women of today. Whether pointing out the effects of horror comics (for which read computer games), bringing attention to the plight of animals, or calling into question the apparent indifference of the Buddhist world, the voice of the Editor is one of sanity, clarity, humour, compassion and above all, challenge.
