In his definitive introduction to Zen Buddhism Alan Watts (the perfect guide for a course
correction in life Deepak Chopra) explains the principles and practices of this ancient
religion.With a rare combination of freshness and lucidity he delves into the origins and
history of Zen to explain what it means for the world today with incredible clarity. Watts saw
Zen as one of the most precious gifts of Asia to the world and in The Way of Zen he gives this
gift to readers everywhere.Perhaps the foremost interpreter of Eastern disciplines for the
contemporary West Watts had the rare gift of writing beautifully the unwritable. Los Angeles
