Book Reviews and Reading Suggestions

 

Hirnforschung und Meditation: Ein Dialog ( )
Book Singer Ricard An excellent discourse about the neuroscience of meditation.
The book documents a lively discussion between two great personalities: Wolf Singer, Director of the Max Planck Institute for Brain Research in Frankfurt and Matthieu Ricard, scientifically trained buddhist monk from the Nyingma Tradition of Tibetan Buddhism.
The most enlightening publication on the neuroscience of meditation I read for a long time. It only has a single disadvantage: It is currently only available in German language.
