The Cow in the Parking Lot: A Zen Approach to Overcoming Anger by Leonard Scheff, written with Susan Edmiston, is a self-help and practical spirituality book focused on anger management. It uses Buddhist and Zen-informed ideas in a deliberately accessible, secular style so that readers do not need prior knowledge of Buddhism to benefit from it. The book is built around a memorable central parable: if a person loses a parking space to another driver, anger feels automatic, but if the space is taken by a cow, the same event becomes absurd rather than infuriating. That contrast frames the book’s central claim that anger depends heavily on interpretation, especially on unmet demands and assumptions about how other people should behave. Rather than treating anger as something to suppress, the book aims to help readers recognize its triggers, examine their expectations, and develop a calmer response to frustrating situations.
