Reading Lao Tzu A Companion to the Tao Te Ching With a New Translation

Reading Lao Tzu is intended for the general reader. The Tao Te Ching is the shortest and yet the most difficult of all Chinese classics. For that reason, in the East few read it without the help of a commentary. This commentary strives to present Lao Tzu's meaning passage by passage and as directly as possible. Notes are included separately in support of the author's rendition, especially when he departs from a traditional reading, or when the passage in question is controversial. The translation includes a new rendering of a number of key passages.Kim, Ha is the author of 'Reading Lao Tzu A Companion to the Tao Te Ching With a New Translation' with ISBN 9781401083168 and ISBN 1401083161.
