This sweeping collection of new translations paints a brilliant picture of the development of Ch'an (Zen) Buddhism, China's most radical philosophical and meditative tradition.In this landmark anthology of some two dozen translations, celebrated translator David Hinton shows how Ch'an (Japanese: Zen)--too long considered a perplexing school of Chinese Buddhism--was in truth a Buddhist-inflected form of Taoism, China's native system of spiritual philosophy.
