Jainism

Just because I love to learn new things and just because I am curious, I would like to know more about Jainism. Has anyone studied it? I would like to know the main differences (in philosophy and practice) between Jainism and Buddhism. I'm not really committed to reading extensively on it at this point, since I now have a bookshelf of Buddhist books I am dedicated to getting through first.

their obssession with avoiding harm to living beings
resulted in wearing masks to avoid causing harm to
any creatures by their mouth or nose.
