This book is sold in a kit that contains some absolutely AWFUL stick incense. And what a pity, as the text itself is magnificent! Buy the kit, throw out the incense, and treasure the book. This is a sympathetic, well-informed and meticulously detailed study of Japanese incense, with a particular focus on Kodo (also spelled Koudou or Kohdoh), the Japanese way of incense or "incense ceremony."
