Zen And The Art of Motorcycle Maintenance
"Zen Buddhists talk about 'just sitting,' a meditative practice in which the idea of a duality of self and object does not dominate one's consciousness. What I'm talking about here in motorcycle maintenance is 'just fixing,' in which the idea of a duality of self and object doesn't dominate one's consciousness."
FIRST EDITION of Pirsig's best-selling classic; often cited as the most widely-read philosophy book of modern times.
New York: William Morrow & Co., 1974. Octavo, original cloth, original dust jacket. Book very good with gift inscription to front free endpaper; pulling to half title is very minimal, much less than is common for this poorly produced title. Dust jacket very clean and bright with tiny closed tear at inner rear flap; price clipped. A lovely copy of this memorable and influential title.
