I have been trying to get hold of a copy of this book for ages, as the book has been out of print for a while, but I found one and it was worth the wait. Bill Hamilton has called the grandfather of the pragmatic dharma movement having influenced many key figures but is largely unheard of in the wider world. This book is part memoir dealing with his experiences with those psychopathic people who claim to be enlightened, one of which he married. And part guide for finding a teacher in a world which is full of charlatans and cheats, not sure quite how relevant a lot of the information is in the time of the internet but it is a quick and interesting read nonetheless.
