Review

This work is an invaluable resource for especially (but not only) those non-specialists who teach the Daode Jing. The essays offer materials that address very practical issues in teaching this influential and elusive text. Even more important, they display a rich variety of sometimes contending perspectives on the best approaches to it. A rich collection, then, and one that is both accessible and can serve many different needs. (Lee H. Yearley, Walter Y. Evans-Wentz Professor of Oriental Philosophies, Religions, and Ethics, Stanford University)
