Tired of a fast and demanding lifestyle? Want to change? This book could be the answer. More a manual set out in an easily accessible style, this book enables the reader to study Tao in individual chapters which fit together to form a complete picture. The wonderful quotes sprinkled in the margins are a real delight, and illustrate the essence of Tao. Although in many ways this is a companion to the author's earlier publication, Zen and the Art of Making a Living, it can stand alone. If the reader has no previous knowledge of Taoist philosophy, the chapter entitled 'Five Fingers of Tao' at the beginning of the book provides an overview of the concepts. The author has based the book on eight principles of abundant living, applying ancient wisdom to modern life, to encourage changes that might create a spiritually richer and improved lifestyle. The book is meant to be popular rather than scholarly, offering constructive information which encourages positive action, helping to create balance and harmony within the various aspects of our lives.
