Overview

The Tao te Ching of Lao Tzu is one of the most widely read and deeply cherished books in the world, a work many consider the wisest book ever written. In his introduction, translator Brian Browne Walker says, It is less a book than a living, breathing angel. In his new translation, Walker stays close to the direct literal accuracy of the Chinese characters while producing a modern, exceptionally clear version that has the ring and voice of Lao Tzu, a man who may or may not have been a single individual. I have come to think of Lao Tzu less as a man who once lived, Walker writes, and more as a song that plays, eternal and abiding.
