Basically the basics?

Here are the basics as I understand them.

1) Basic theory : The four noble truths
2) Basic practice: The 8-fold path

If you read the two above, I think you have covered what the Buddha taught.

As for meditation, I have read a few books but I still haven't come across anything more deeper, more complete yet more clearer and simpler than this book:

You can read the first few chapters free.
