I think the only book anyone would ever need to read on meditating is Journey of Awakening by Ram Dass. Its so simply written too. After that to get into Zen in particular my favorite book is Everyday Zen : Love and Work by Charlotte Joko Beck, but there are probably many ohter good Zen authors. I think that Thich Naht Hahn is pretty good though reading him is kind of redundant for me.
