I really liked Dr. Shoshanna's voice and was drawn to read the book by the first chapter. I quickly discovered that her knowledge of Judaism was very shallow. I don't know as much about Zen, but I felt less trusting of what she had to tell me about it because of the basic errors she made about Judaism. (Like attributing a very famous quote from Deuteronomy to the Lubavitcher rebbe, for example.) I didn't finish the book.
