Nature, Man and Woman

Pantheon Books, 1958

Alan Watts's 1958 book, published in New York by Pantheon Books, extending his non-dual reading of Taoism and Zen to nature, the human body and sexuality, against what he saw as a Western habit of splitting spirit from matter and self from world. Watts himself later named it his best work. This description is adapted from Wikipedia contributors under CC BY-SA 4.0; changes were made. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/
