Translated by Red Pine, with selected commentaries from the past 2000 years and Chinese text en face
Red Pine notes in his introduction, "I envisioned this book as a discussion between Lao-tzu and a group of people who have thought deeply about his text." What distinguishes this volume is its commentary: here as well are the voices of scores of poets, monks, recluses, adepts, scholars, and emperors. More than a translation, more than a book of poetry or religious teachings, this edition gathers the wisdom, thought, and individual voices of its readers across millennia.
This edition of Lao-tzu's Taoteching was made possible through the generous support of Amazon.com.
