Summary
Wise yet worldly, spiritual yet practical, the Tao Te Ching is beloved by seekers all the world over. This new edition features a lucid, poetic translation that makes the Tao Te Ching accessible to contemporary listeners.
The Tao Te Ching is a series of meditations on the mysterious nature of the Tao - the way, the guiding light, the very source of all existence. According to Lao Tzu (a name meaning "the old master"), the Tao is found where we would least expect it - not in the strong but in the weak; not in speech but in silence; not in doing but in "not-doing".

great book! must read..
I loved this. I wish I read it years ago. Basically common sense teachings about how to live life in the best way. I think it should be taught in schools. If everyone lived by this book then the world would be a better place.

Peaceful and Inspiring
I loved the paradoxical yet profound ideas and the narrator's calming rendition nearly perfectly suited this book.
Despite having been translated from Chinese, the poetic tone was maintained. The words are easily understood but endlessly engaging: a testament to Huston Smith's analysis "it can be read in half an hour or a lifetime." - Or in this case, listened to.
My only criticism is that whilst the narrator's voice is relaxing, it can be a little too monotonous at times. For example - at the end of the page titled "Redemption", Lao Tzu answers the question of whether "the old phrase" is "a false hope" with a powerful "No!" on its very own line yet the narration of this felt underwhelming.
Overall - very satisfying.

Better to read than listen
Normally I much prefer audiobooks over reading books, however, this book is very short and has short sentences, therefore reading it would be much more effective.
