sarahmichiganI just learned today that the entire volume is available for free on-line!

A note: I'd heard this book recommended many times and was always skeptical I'd like it because I was not interested in motorcycles (except in the sense of going out on dates with hot guys who rode them) and wasn't much more interested in Zen. But I ended up reading it, and now my opinion is that it's a great philosophical treatise on Quality and touches on a lot of topics I'm interested in, including, "What makes a piece of writing good?"
