5.0 out of 5 stars Best Holistic Translation Ever, June 5, 2006
This review is from: Lao Tzu's Tao Te Ching (Chinese Popular Classics) (Paperback)
It only takes a brief reading of Mr. Freke's interpretation of the Tao to see that this is undoubtedly the deepest insight you'll ever find into the true/intended meaning of the original text. A book to live by, translated by someone who really got it and was able to make his vision coherent for the rest of us.
