A review by jmatthiass
The Way of Zen by Alan Watts

3.0

Watts was surely wise, but it's hard sometimes to escape the haughty erudition and dry anthropological vibe of The Way of Zen. However, sometimes that intellectual façade falls away and moments of understanding and realization shine through. Those moments kept me going.
Overall: A clearly smart but not altogether spiritual reckoning of the Zen tradition.
