For fans of Eastern philosophy and timeless wisdom, this beautifully illustrated hardback pocket edition of the Tao Te Ching offers profound guidance on simplicity, virtue, and living well through poetic reflections from the ancient world.

This handsome jacketed hardback edition presents Tao Te Ching with striking two-color page illustrations and a ribbon marker.

The Tao Te Ching came into existence some 2,500 years ago, since when it has become the most influential text of eastern philosophy. Best translated as the classic of the way and its power (or virtue), its teachings are of simplicity, humility, and 'non-action', and its cadenced poetry is at once spare and profound.

This hardback edition features exquisite images that bring out the timeless wisdom of the text and its subtle guidance on how to live well.
