Recenzii

[A] stirring yet unsentimental spiritual biography. --Bernadette McGrath, Dragonfly Review

"[Denison] brought a strongly feminine, body-centered approach to spiritual practice at a time when this was regarded as radical if not subversive . . . Boucher's life repeatedly intersects with Denison's, making this a dual tale of development and discovery and, therefore, doubly compelling." --Whitney Scott, Booklist

"Dancing in the Dharma skillfully conveys Ruth Denison's full humanity: her formidable gifts and charm and her puzzling contradictions . . . [A] riveting and deeply rewarding portrayal of a great teacher." --Shane Snowdon, Turning Wheel

"Author and Denison student Sandy Boucher gives an intimate portrait." --Shambhala Sun

"Ruth is one of our most amazing Buddhist elders, whose vision has helped plant the Dharma in the West. And this is her story, compellingly and beautifully told."--Jack Kornfield, cofounder of Spirit Rock Meditation Center and Insight Meditation Society, author of After the Ecstasy, the Laundry
