“No better choice of translator could have been made for the Tao Teh Ching than Dr. John C. H. Wu, whose rendering is superb. Absolutely necessary for us not only to progress but even to survive.”—Thomas Merton
Kurzbeschreibung
Written more than two thousand years ago, the Tao Teh Ching, or “The Classic of the Way and Its Virtue,” is one of the true classics of the world of spiritual literature. Traditionally attributed to the near-legendary “Old Master,” Lao Tzu, the Tao Teh Ching teaches that the qualities of the enlightened sage or ideal ruler are identical with those of the perfected individual. Today, Lao Tzu’s words are as useful in mastering the arts of leadership in business and politics as they are in developing a sense of balance and harmony in everyday life. To follow the Tao or Way of all things and realize their true nature is to embody humility, spontaneity, and generosity.
John C. H. Wu has done a remarkable job of rendering this subtle text into English while retaining the freshness and depth of the original. A jurist and scholar, Dr. Wu was a recognized authority on Taoism and the translator of several Taoist and Zen texts and of Chinese poetry.

John C. H. Wu is the best Tao translator available,
Von Ein Kunde
Rezension bezieht sich auf: Tao Te Ching (Taschenbuch)
Why read a version of the Tao Teh Ching translated by some American who thought Taoism was something "exotic" when you can have this one--written by an earthy man born and raised in Ningpo? As Wu once said of himself, "I was initiated early into the mysteries of paradox."

A SURPRISINGLY GOOD BUT ESOTERIC READ,
Rezension bezieht sich auf: Tao Te Ching (Taschenbuch)
THIS BOOK FULFILLED MY EXPECTATIONS OF IT. I WAS SURPRISED TO NOTE THE SIMILARITIES BETWEEN OUR OCCIDENTAL CONCEPT OF GOD AND THE CHINESE CONCEPT. SOMEHOW, GOD COMES ACROSS AS MORE THAN A BLOB IN THIS BOOK. ASIAN RELIGION USUALLY PORTRAYS GOD IN EXTREMELY IMPERSONAL TERMS AND YET FOR SOME REASON I WAS PLEASANTLY REASSURED BY THIS BOOK'S PORTRAYAL OF GOD. PERHAPS THE CHINESE JUST HAVE A WAY OF MAKING THE CONCEPT MORE PALATABLE TO THE WESTERN MIND.
