520    This is not the usual kind of self-help book. Indeed, its 
       major premise heeds a Zen master's advice to be less self-
       centered. Yes, it is "one more book of words about Zen," 
       as the author concedes, yet this book explains meditative 
       practices from the perspective of a " neural Zen." The 
       latest findings in brain research inform its suggestions. 
       In Meditating Selflessly , James Austin -- Zen 
       practitioner, neurologist and author of three acclaimed 
       books on Zen and neuroscience -- guides readers toward 
       that open awareness already awaiting them on the cushion 
       and in the natural world.<br /><br />Austin offers 
       concrete advice -- often in a simplified question-and-
       answer format -- about different ways to meditate. He 
       clarifies both the concentrative and receptive styles of 
       meditation. Drawing widely from the exciting new field of 
       contemplative neuroscience, Austin helps resolve an 
       ancient paradox: why both insight wisdom and selflessness 
       arise simultaneously during enlightened states of 
       consciousness.
