The New Lao Tzu

About the book

Much of the astute and pragmatic wisdom in Lao Tzu's Tao Te Ching has been obscured by the demonstrably futile attempts to do a literal and definitive translation of the old Chinese classic. This refreshing contemporary interpretation is a scholarly and poetic rendition that clears away the linguistic and cultural confusion so Western readers can easily and directly approach Taoism's insightful guidance.
