A practical guide to meditation by a parapsychologist. Dr Le Shan explains simply and clearly why we should meditate, and what meditation does psychologically and physiologically. Drawing on the meditational practices of Zen, Sufism, Yoga and Jewish and Christian mysticism, the author describes specific exercises and programmes, structured and unstructured, ranging from breath-counting and simple mantras to group movement and sensory awareness. He also explores such fields as the role of meditation in psychotherapy and the relation of meditation to the paranormal. Through the use of meditation, Le Shan seeks to show that it is possible to achieve a focusing of energies and increased concentration and confidence that can lead to efficiency in everyday life, and eventually to a higher peace.

This is a book from a while ago (the80's?) and so a lot that has happened since particularly around body centered meditation, isn't in it, but the basic stuff is very useful and good for beginner or experienced meditator. It's a classic.
