But no modern translation has yet captured the essential thrust of Lao Tzu's work as a practical guide to living an awakened life. Now William Martin, whose acclaimed previous reinterpretations of the Tao (for parents, couples, and elders) have introduced or reacquainted this classic text to thousands of readers, strikingly translates the Tao's eighty-one chapters to uniquely address someone on a Tao--or path--with a practice. Martin frames his new translation with two illuminating, groundbreaking sections: A Path, which introduces the Tao's nonlinear construction and explains how it works its themes; and A Practice, which provides practical guidance for readers exploring each of the Tao's themes in depth. Martin's genius in this new translation uncovers how directly the Tao speaks to readers on or about to embark on a spiritual journey.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"I give all my friends with children The Parent's Tao Te Ching--a reminder of what matters when raising little ones."<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>William Martin</b> has been a student of the Tao for almost twenty years.
