Take It Personally: On the Art and the Process of Personal Acting
Great perspective and a good companion for any "Shakespeare Nerd" (a loving label), but a bit terse and at times slightly tedious. If you have no experience with Shakespeare, this is a tough place to start. It's probably more suitable for someone who has at least some basic understanding, has read at least a few of the plays, and seen enough performances (or been in a few) to understand the references and have the motivation and discipline to get though this book.
