Books I'd recommend:
Anything by
: Alan Watts, Terry Pratchett, Chungliang Al Huang, Ken Wilber

Tao Te Ching trans. Timothy Freke; Piatkus 1999 - the most accessible I've seen:-)
The Way of Qigong
Kenneth S. Cohen; Bantam 1997 - comprehensive
Reality - How It Works Rik Dent; Capall Bann 1997 - wonderfully refreshing

These two look like the old propaganda about losing the intellect, but turn out to be reasonably balanced:
The Power of Now Eckhart Tolle; Hodder & Stoughton 1999 - about the eternal present
Hare Brain, Tortoise Mind Guy Claxton; Fourth Estate Paperbacks 1998 - about the brain
