"""This compact, humorous, and informative book demystifies the practice of meditation . . . an especially good read."" -- Mandala magazine ""Michie skillfully takes meditation out of the hippy, trippy, New Age sentimental or magical realm and brings it down to the basic practical level that it is. His style is very simple and accessible. This book is for vaguely interested skeptics, a most difficult group to satisfy. That he succeeds in doing so makes this indeed a wonderful, highly commendable book"" -- The Middle Way magazine"
