Confucian & Taoist Wisdom: Philosophical Insights from Confucius, Mencius, Laozi, Zhuangzi, and Other Masters (Eternal Moments)

The way that can be spoken is not the eternal way. The famous first line of the Dao De Jing (6th century BCE) is the beginning of a generations-long dialogue among Chinese sages about the meaning and purpose of life. Confucian & Taoist Wisdom introduces readers to that dialogue in poetical excerpts from the writings of Laozi, Confucius, Mencius, and many others. Divided into key subject areas (Family, Education, Warfare, The Dao, Government, Sagehood, and Death) and illustrated with beautiful photographs that emphasize the oneness of man and nature, this richly produced anthology will inspire all who seek answers to life s eternal questions.
