Summary

One of the world’s most enduring works on radical simplicity - showing how less effort, less control and less noise can lead to better decisions and a stronger life.

The Tao Te Ching has inspired thinkers and leaders for over two thousand years with a radically simple idea: the less you force, the more effective you become. Through brief, meditative passages, it shows how to lead without control, act without burnout and find strength in stillness.

What They're Saying

Critics Review

No one has done better in conveying Lao Tsu’s simple and laconic style of writing, so as to produce an English version almost as suggestive of the many meanings intended – Alan Watts
The wisdom in it is timeless: how to be a good leader, a good person, a good parent, a good artist - how to be good at anything. It’s a beautiful read that awakens aspects of the brain in a really nice way – Rick Rubin
The most lovable of all the great religious texts. Funny, keen, kind, modest, indestructibly outrageous, and inexhaustibly refreshing – Ursula K. Le Guin
