book of the dead December 26, 2008 Smaller book than I thought. Will probably get the full version. Would not recommend if you're looking for a good read.
Tiny book! Fits in your pocket.... but LOADED ! December 4, 2008 Instead of repeating what most people stated, I just wanted to emphasize on the size. This book is soooo tiny, it can fit in your pocket! It literally fits in the palm of your hand, and perfect to throw in the purse, the murse or your desk at work.
Also, for those non-buddhist coworkers, you won't get that "look" when they see (can't) the title of the book.
I've read better translations, however it is what it is! TINY and loaded with info!
The Tibetan Book of the Dead April 23, 2008 Very small book without illustrations but an excellent commentary. makes a wonderful companion to a lager, illustrated text.

A superb classic, sharing deep wisdom and guidance for life. Greatly enjoyed it and read it twice in a row. First encountered this book many years ago as a teenager. As useful now as it was then.

We accidentally ordered this book not realizing it was a pocket edition.
We ended up returning it because it did not include the glossary, pronounciation guide, etc. of the full-sized version (which we had to order directly from the publisher as it wasn't available here at Amazon.)
If you're looking for a pocket edition, though, it's just fine.
