"Mind Science: Meditation Training for Practical People" by Charles T. Tart

"Rich with lucid instructions and practical insights, Mind Science dispels the metaphysical haze that all too often surrounds the subject of meditation. Based on a lively workshop with fellow scientists, this book shows how the pragmatic and scientifically-inclined among us can bring mindfulness into everyday life without religious baggage, while clearly explaining its many spiritual and health benefits. This concise yet densely informative book includes many question-and-answer exchanges between students and teacher, clarifying many of the puzzles and quandaries that meditation practice presents to beginners."
