Synopsis

Tao Te Ching: The Ageless Book of Wisdom for Readers of All Ages brings the teachings of the legendary Taoist master, Lao-Tzu, to a wider, if not necessarily younger audience. In a departure from most other attempts, the book employs prose, rather than the poetic verse of the original manuscript. With brevity and clarity Villano captures Lao-Tzu’s principal lessons: clues for welcoming the Tao into our lives, and for constructing a world of societal balance and harmony. Villano’s prose is simple and breezy – a less-is-more literary style that appeals to younger readers and yet somehow seems enduringly consistent with Taoist philosophy.
