There is a wealth of information contained in this book. Mercifully its divided into eight sections and each section is sub-divided into very readable chapters.
Anyone looking for a comprehensive guide to meditation or mindfulness practice could do a lot worse than read this book. However I found it quite tiresome in parts and the temptation to just plod along was ever present.This being the antithesis of mindfulness then maybe the point of the book is lost. I firmly believe that the material contained in this book is quite good but Jon Kabat Zinn lets it down with his long windedness and unnecessary self indulgence.

At 600-plus pages, this deeply philosophical book may challenge some readers. But Dr. Jon Kabat-Zinn, an accomplished scientist, thinker and author, imparts his wisdom in short, easily digestible chapters. He says you can have a more peaceful, contented life if you are open to exploring the spiritual realm and the practice of mindful meditation. Kabat-Zinn, who cites studies and personal experiences, presents convincing evidence that meditation reduces everyday stress, and can help treat depression and fear, chronic pain, cancer and other serious illnesses. We believe that everyone can benefit from reading this mindful treatise - even those who are already healthy, wealthy and wise. Highly recommended.
