One of the very few books in English on the subject of Chinese Chan Buddhism, which is what became Zen when it traveled to Japan
Author Guo Jun is a monk who received training in monasteries from youth. He is not only a foremost expert in the subject, but also serves as Abbot at leading monastic institutes in the US and Asia. Author also advanced degrees in biotechnology and Buddhist studies, so is conversant with the Western academic tradition.
Chan Buddhism is the Chinese and earlier form of Zen Buddhism, thus the book should be of great interest to the rapidly expanding readership in Zen
Author will come to the US to help launch the book, which is his first. He will make appearances in NYC, Update NY and Vancouver, CA. More info to come.
Monkfish will advertise the book in Shambhala Sun, Tricycle and Chan Magazine
Monkfish will pursue interview opportunites for Author during his visit which will primarily be in months of Sept and Oct
Monkfish and Author are currently creating a special YouTube channel for Guo Jun which features the Author teaching
