Title: Dao de jing
First published: 2001
Description: "The Dao De Jing is one of the richest, most suggestive, and most popular works of philosophy and literature. It is widely influential in China, in Asia, and in the West. Composed between the late sixth and the late fourth centuries B.C., its enigmatic verses have inspired artists, philosophers, poets, religious thinkers, and general readers down to our own times. This new translation, both revelatory and authentic, captures much of the beauty and nuance of the original work.

In an extensive and accessible commentary to his translation, Moss Roberts reveals new depths in the Dao De Jing." "This edition is distinguished by the literary quality of the translation, its new renderings for a number of the stanzas, and by Roberts' knowledgeable contextualizations."--BOOK JACKET.
