"This book presents a comprehensive study of D. T. Suzuki's Zen philosophy and philosophical psychology in relation to his Buddhist understanding of the unconscious. A major contribution to the field of Japanese philosophy, it gives a clear overview of Suzuki's central idea of Zen self-awareness while exploring its relativity to a number of great thinkers from the history of European philosophy." — Takeshi Morisato, University of Edinburgh
