Tanahashi's introduction alone makes this book worth purchasing. He presents a concise but rich overview of Dogen's life, education, teaching, methods, contributions and context.
It's 29 pages you can read and re-read to deepen your understanding of and respect for Dogen.

Concise and accessible. An excellent way to keep the stages of the mind in short chapters.

Incredibly detailed and insightful, particularly with regard to Kegon cosmology and Kūkai and Dōgen's respective viewpoints and soteriological systems.
