Review of 'The Way of Zen' on 'Goodreads'
5 stars
This was my first book into Zen and Buddhism in general and I found it to be very enlightening and it sparked my interest looking more into the subject matter. There's a general overview into the main traditions of Buddhism, with the latter part of the book dedicated to Zen. Watts sprinkles the text with his own experiences and fables from the traditions, which makes this book pretty lively and pleasant to read, as opposed to reading an encyclopedic text. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book.
