Book Review - Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance
This is one of my all-time favorite books, a classic.
While it's not strictly a motorcycle book, it's all about the nature of getting into the "zone" - whether it be riding, working on your bike, or building a piece of furniture, it's all about focus and being absorbed in what you are doing at the time - not worrying about your job, your chores, the dentist appointment, your test scores, etc.
Persig takes a motorcycle journey with his son, and along the way, delves into the nature of 'quality' - what it is, how it is attained, and things that work against it.
