5.0 out of 5 stars Great mix of the historical, philosphical and practical zen., February 9, 1999

By A Customer

A little known gem in a sea of literature referring to zen buddhism. A book i find myself referring back to more often than any other i own. The first time i read it i gained more insight into the history of zen, where it was coming from, and the people it arrived through. Most importantly at the end of every chapter is a method of practicing zazen. This, along with the stress on practicing zen principles in daily life is why i would highly recommend this book to the beginning zen practitioner.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the Best Books on Zen, December 4, 2003

By	Casey (Miami, FL) - See all my reviews

This is one of the best books on Zen Buddhism that has ever been published. Not only does it detail the history and evolution of Zen but it provides the reader with a great set of techniques. This book is a necessary addition to any library on Zen Buddhism.
