With an Introduction by Robert Wilkinson.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDating from around 300BC, Tao Te Ching is the first great classic of the Chinese school of philosophy called Taoism. Within its pages is summed up a complete view of the cosmos and how human beings should respond to it. A profound mystical insight into the nature of things forms the basis for a humane morality and vision of political utopia.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ideas in this work constitute one of the main shaping forces behind Chinese spirituality, art and science, so much so that no understanding of Chinese civilisation is possible without a grasp of Taoism. This edition presents the authoritative translation by Arthur Waley, with a new Introduction reflecting recent developments in the interpretation of the work.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Secret Bookstore","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":31696500523078,"sku":"301","price":6.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0275\/8921\/4278\/files\/TaoTeChing_LaoTzu.jpg?v=1729857569","url":"https:\/\/www.thesecretbookstore.live\/products\/tao-te-ching-lao-tzu","provider":"The Secret Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
