I've been wanting to read more of the Dharma and about Buddhism. I picked up "Buddhist Texts Through the Ages" from my local used bookstore. Is it any good? What else should I read to become more familiar with Buddhism?

Just read the Pali canon. Everything else is too steeped in culture to approach without being orientalist.

Heart Sutra and Diamond Sutra are the most widely read primary texts. Red Pine has a great translation of the Heart Sutra. Platform Sutra is also good (IMO).
