According to Glenn Mullin, this version is chock full of errors &
misunderstandings.  Not to mention that Chang was hostile to Je Rinpoche
& the Gelukpas.  His notes & introduction give many examples of the
blunders in Chang's translation.  TSONGKHAPA'S SIX YOGAS OF NAROPA & the
companion volume READINGS ON THE SIX YOGAS OF NAROPA by Mullin are much
to be preferred.
