Tao de Jing. A book about the path and its strength. Lao Tzu

Tao de Jing is a book that has not ceased to surprise and enlighten people for about 2500 years. Deep aphorisms, subtle metaphors and amazing paradoxes of the ancient Chinese sage of Lao Tzu give the key to many secrets of nature, society and human “I”. The book teaches simplicity, modesty and non -performance - the foundations of the philosophy of Taoism. John McDonald, the author of this translation, studied several different versions of the original text of Tao De Jin to compare them and better understand the original meaning of the document. This illustrated publication uses rare Chinese paintings showing the “correct” Taoist life in all its beauty and wisdom.
