Summary

The TAO-TE-CHING, the ancient Taoist text written by philospher Lao-Tzu in the sixth century B.C., has inspired millions of people from all different backgrounds. This beautiful edition contains Chinese characters alongside the English text and is illustrated with black and white drawings. Commentary from the translators helps to illuminate the ideas discussed in the text so that modern-day readers can fully appreciate the meaning.

Author Biography

Leon Wieger originally translated the TAO-TE-CHING from Chinese to French in 1913. Derek Bryce has now translated the French into English with a great consideration for both the original Chinese text and the unique insights of Wieger's work.
