  • "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.--Copper Canyon Press."@en
  • "A revolutionary archaeological discovery -- considered by some to be as momentous as the revelation of the Dead Sea Scrolls -- sheds fascinating new light on one of the most important texts of ancient Chinese civilization."
