Book excerpt: A succinct, uncompromising study of what it means to help other people, this book, first published in 1978, examines the helping process in the light of the principles of Zen Buddhism.

As the teachings of Zen demonstrate, real compassion involves a selflessness and respect that can bring helper and helped together.
