In Bringing Zen Home, the first study of the ritual lives of Zen laywomen, Paula Arai applies a cutting-edge ethnographic method to reveal a thriving domain of religious practice. Her work represents an important contribution on a number of fronts - to Zen studies, ritual studies, scholarship on women and religion, and the cross-cultural study of healing.

Paula Arai, the author of Women Living Zen: Japanese Buddhist Nuns, received her Ph.D. in Buddhist studies from Harvard University under the mentorship of Masatoshi Nagatomi. She is an associate professor of religious studies at Louisiana State University.
