Reviews
"Of very definite value and interest to specialists as well as laymen. in part, this virtue is owing to the enthusiasm, humor, lucitiy, and delightful informality he brings to his task, but it rests even more on a quite unusual capacity for analytical insight and informed understanding."--Derk Bodde, Harvard Journal of Asiatic Studies "Clarifies a large area of literature and history that has been a mystery to the West and makes fascinating reading even for those whose interest is casual."-- The New Yorker
Synopsis
Called "a first-rate piece of work" by T. S. Eliot, this book offers a comprehensive discussion of Taoism, one of the world's major religions, as well as a study of the Tao te ching , the best known Taoist text, and Lao-tzu as a Taoist prototype.

    The book arrived quickly and was exactly as described. Seller packed it so it would be well-protected in the mail. Pricing was very fair - thank you very much! I had this book in grade school LONG ago and am excited to share it with my own daughter.

    I'm happy with my purchase and would definitely buy from this seller again. The book was accurately described and matched the photos that were available. It was dispatched promptly and was securely packaged in a bubble wrap lined envelope with a piece of cardboard to provide extra support.
