Neti-Neti literally means "not this, not this," and more loosely "neither this nor that." It is used widely and traditionally as the name for a quasi-analytical method of discarding psychic debris and investments, a sort of "via negativa" tool of self-exploration, more particularly, disidentification. More about this can be found at wikipedia:Neti_neti. Osho sprinkles the phrase liberally in both Hindi and English discourses, so a book with this as its title has a lot to live up to.
This is that book, created from four of Osho's early series of talks, three of them given at Meditation Camps, plus two single-discourse early booklets. The series are, in chronological order:
Shunya Ki Naav (शून्य की नाव)
Satya Ki Khoj (सत्य की खोज)
Sambhavnaon Ki Aahat (संभावनाओं की आहट)
Shunya Ke Paar (शुन्य के पार)
And the booklets, whose dates are not known, ~ late 60's:
Satya Ke Agyat Sagar Ka Amantran (सत्य के अज्ञात सागर का आमंत्रण)
Surya Ki Or Udan (सूर्य की ओर उड़ान)
notes
Order of the parts of Neti Neti does not quite follow the order of the component smaller books as above but does within those books. Only Satya Ki Khoj has been translated into English, the others not. See below Editions for the basic section order.

For more on dates, places, alt-titles, sources, etc, see discussion. For a TOC, see the discussion pages for the component books. And though it may not be easy to find in hard copy, Neti Neti is available in audio and e-book form.
