I can't remember the author right now. It is supposed to be the best book ever written about Zen. And it is really good. Lots of really helpful things.

| 1. Thanks, I just picked it up after reading this. |
|
I haven't started reading it yet, but a quick skim tells me it's going to be as good for me as it was for you.

Lots of reviewers said it is the best book on Zen.
Now if I could just find a good book on Dogen.

| 3. I read the book and enjoyed it. |
|
I also really enjoyed The Zen Teaching of Huang-Po: On the Transmission of Mind.
Most Zen books seem to be good.
