CONDITION - USED - Pages can include limited notes and highlighting, and the copy can include "From the library of" labels or previous owner inscriptions. Accessories such as CD, codes, toys, may not be included. The centuries-old wisdom of the Tao, as told??through the profoundly wise and delightfully??entertaining illustrations of Tsai Chih Chung. In??The Tao Speaks, Tsai Chih Chung??brilliantly retells, through his enchanting and??irreverently humorous cartoon panels, the two??thousand-year-old text of Tao Te Ching,??the inspiring classic upon which Taoism is??based. Attributed to the great Chinese philosopher??Lao-tzu, the Tao Te Ching has??attracted generations of followers from across the??world to its simple tenets of modesty, peace, and??realism. According to Lao-tzu, "If we are at??peace with ourselves and the world around us,??success will come unsought." Advocating poise,??serenity, and complete assurance, Lao-tzu teaches??men and women to work with nature rather than resist??it. The Tao Speaks??offers the centuries-old wisdom of the Tao to modern??readers searching for new ways to bring meaning to??life. As with Tsai Chih Chung's previous books,??the original Chinese notes are contained in the??margins of each page as an aid to scholars and??Chinese-speaking readers. "Tsai Chih??Chung's books are awe-inspiring. his line is elegant;??his characters are sharply drawn; his humor is sly??and appropriate; and his subject is profound. This??is cartooning of the highest order." -- Larry??Gonick, author of The Cartoon History Of??The Universe, Volumes I and II.
