The Book of Tea by Kakuzo Okakura
I. The Cup of Humanity
Tea began as a medicine and grew into a beverage. In China, in the eighth century, it entered the realm of poetry as one of the polite amusements. The fifteenth century saw Japan ennoble it into a religion of aestheticism--Teaism. Teaism is a cult founded on the adoration of the beautiful among the sordid facts of everyday existence. It inculcates purity and harmony, the mystery of mutual charity, the romanticism of the social order.
The long isolation of Japan from the rest of the world, so conducive to introspection, has been highly favourable to the development of Teaism. Our home and habits, costume and cuisine, porcelain, lacquer, painting--our very literature--all have been subject to its influence. No student of Japanese culture could ever ignore its presence. It has permeated the elegance of noble boudoirs, and entered the abode of the humble. Our peasants have learned to arrange flowers, our meanest labourer to offer his salutation to the rocks and waters.
The thinking was never the slow part.
A PDF viewer in one window. An indexing program in another. Maybe Word in a third. You read, you decide, and then you spend all your time moving from one application to another — copying a term, typing a page number, double checking and alphabetizing.
On a 300-page book, that extra work adds up to hours.
SeeAlso is here to change that.
One workspace, built around the proofs.
In SeeAlso, the index is built within the book itself. You select a term on the page, and the entry appears with its page reference attached. No copying, no window switching, no typing numbers you can already see.
Everything after that — subentries, cross-references, restructuring, revising — happens in the same place, in whatever order you work.

Built by someone who indexes for a living.
SeeAlso is led by Dr. Andrew Ascherl, a professional indexer with a dozen years of experience and hundreds of books indexed. We started with Andrew’s frustration, moving between applications to do something that should have happened in one. Every design decision came out of that experience, then went back to other professional indexers to be tested against how they actually work. The result keeps the judgment with the indexer. Nothing enters an index without your approval.
