A very thorough compilation (two chapters on Daoism!), suffering slightly as these often do from having to compress lots down into very short chapters - and I think some of the chapters could've done with a bit more historical context in. But very worth a read for anyone trying to get a cross-practice overview of meditation.

Rediscovering a love of fiction after finishing a PhD, also reading plenty of non-fiction on: the humanities, religious studies, Buddhism, esotericism, Christianity, and language acquisition. Other things as they catch my interest.
