Tracing Back the Radiance: Chinul's Korean Way of Zen
Not enough to go on
There is no English audiobook of this on sale in the shop we search (Audible’s British one), so there is no listen to weigh the page against. That is a fact about what has been recorded, and it says nothing against the book.
What you can do If you want this book in English, the page is the way in for now. There is no format to choose between yet.

- Hardcover barely knows this book, so the pace and second-crowd figures rest on very few people.
Reading load against listening load
We hold no recording of this one, so “In your ears” and “Audio disadvantage” are what we would expect of a recording of it: read off how the book itself reads, and never measured against a reading that exists.
Where that puts this one among the books we hold: in the bottom 1% of our shelf of books for effort on the page and in the bottom 2% of our shelf of books for effort in your ears. The middle of the scale is not the middle of the shelf (most books sit below the average on both), so a book at 0.00 is already in the top 43% for effort on the page. Each of the three is measured against the whole shelf separately, so the bottom figure is not the top two subtracted. It is this book’s own distance from the middle.
What the audio disadvantage is made of. Two things and no others: how fast readers say this one moves, and how demanding the reviews we read found it. There is no third: the structural one has no data source, so it contributes nothing rather than being guessed at. Both directions are declared priors we have never fitted against a real verdict, which is the weakest-evidenced part of the whole model.
How the call was made

- 0.00How much of the picture we actually have, out of 1.00: four questions, each answered as far as the source could answer it, less anything taken off for reading fewer reviews than we aim to.The readingnot measured: there is no recording of this one to attestThe second sourcenot measured: Hardcover holds no record of this bookThe matchnot measured: with no recording, there was nothing to matchThe reviewsWe read 204 reviews to judge how demanding it is: enough to lean on, so 0.02 comes off the figureWe are also missing something we treat as essential: no English audiobook on sale in the shop we search; too little of the record overall.
What each crowd complains about
We would need 40 reviews from each crowd before setting the two side by side, and none of the reviews we read are from people who said they listened to it. So we are not drawing this one.
