Paul T. Harris's John Main: A Biography in Text and Photos, Medio Media, 2001, is a biography of the founder of the World Community for Christian Meditation. Its strength is that Harris knew Main personally and draws on that direct acquaintance and on photographic record. Its limit is that Medio Media is the publishing arm of the very community Main founded, so this is a sympathetic, in house biography rather than an independent scholarly one.
