The Book of Tea, written in English in 1906 for a Western audience, celebrates the secular art of the Japanese tea ceremony and linking its importance with Zen Buddhism and Taoism. Covering cultural life, aesthetics and philosophy, this is an exquisitely produced edition using traditional Chinese bookbinding techniques.
