LCCN: 2009907999 Translated by Wenliang Tao

Since Dao De Jing has been largely mistranslated, the transltor has not only correct the English translation problems but also decoded statements and points that even confuse Daoism scholars in China today. The translator has also included fascinating interpretation of stories by ancient scholars relating to Dao De Jing. Most of those essays were written in the years B.C. and are themselves valuable cultural world heritages.
