A thorough and evocative examination of the evolution of early Ch'an, The Northern School and Formation of Early Ch'an Buddism, attempts to elucidate the spaces between recorded history and the legends surrounding the beginnings of Ch'an. Simultaneously scholarly and brash "The Northern School", plunges into the shrouded history of the Sixth Patriarch and Ch'an's early teachings in a way accessible to serious academic and arm chair philosopher alike.
