I finished this a month and a half ago and failed to write a review. It was pretty amazing though. Such a good find. It included a history of the book, textual variants found at Dunhuang and a huge description of all the sections. Some of which sounded truly amazing. I read through the whole thing even though it is designed more for reference and found it just fascinating. I am so happy that I stumbled across a copy of this in Paris. It's something I otherwise wouldn't have known existed.
