What is A Comprehensive Manual of Abhidhamma about?

The present volume contains the Pāḷi text, an English translation, and a detailed exposition of Ācariya Anuruddha s Abhidhammattha Sangaha, the main primer for the study of Abhidhamma used throughout the Theravādin Buddhist world. This volume began as a revised version of Venerable Mahāthera Nārada s long-standing edition and annotated translation of the Abhidhammattha Sangaha. 1 Now, as the time approaches to go to press, it has evolved into what is virtually an entirely new book, published under essentially the same title. That title has been retained partly to preserve its continuity with its predecessor and partly because the name Manual of Abhidhamma is simply the most satisfactory English rendering of the Pāḷi title of the root text, which literally means a compendium of things contained in the Abhidhamma. The qualification comprehensive has been added to the original title to underscore its more extensive scope.
