In eighty-one brief chapters, Lao-tzu's Tao Te Ching, or Book of the Way, provides advice that imparts balance and perspective, a serene and generous spirit, and teaches us how to work for the good with the effortless skill that comes from being in accord with the Tao—the basic principle of the universe. Stephen Mitchell's bestselling version has been widely acclaimed as a gift to contemporary culture.

一杯热奶茶，微起水雾的玻璃窗边，读着“天下之至柔，驰骋于天下之至坚”，让这样的句子流出舌尖“the bright way seems dim, the forward way seems backward”两种诗意的语言在千年前遥远的语境中交汇，唇齿留香，氤氲难忘。那是一个小国寡民的社会中发出的平和之音...

用户评价
据说英文版《道德经》有很多，这本据说最经典。原因很明显，翻译的简单明了具颇具诗意。其实对有一定英文基础的中国人来说，比阅读中文原版更容易懂。 尽管译者具有多年的道教修行，其实译者本身并不懂中文，而是根据好几版的英文翻译及别的语种翻译为基础精心推敲出来的。 缺点也不少了。除了在翻译中流失的中文的美和更深刻的含义外，有好几个地方简单有点牵强甚至搞笑。比如： 四十六章开头“天下有道，却走马以粪”，翻译成：When a country is in harmoney with the Tao, the factories make trucks and tractors。意思倒恰当，只是一下把你从几千年穿越回了现代。
评分You guys don't get the humor. This is a brilliant translation. <The Task of Translator>
评分I have just three things to teach: simplicity, patience, compassion. These three are your greatest treasures. Simple in actions and in thoughts, you return to the source of being. Patient with both friends and enemies, you accord with the way things are. Compassionate toward yourself, you reconcile all beings in the world
评分为了教课的缘故翻了些《老子》的英译本，结果发现了这个超级奇葩。能打负分么？还真没见过疯狂到这个地步的翻译，译者完全不懂中文，根本就是自己瞎编啊....这个书在Amazon上不仅销量第一，下面一堆人四五星好评，还有位大哥说"I know it's not the most literal translation..."
评分＂对不起，我不懂中文，更不懂文言文，上面都是我自由发挥的，还好只有5000字，要不实在是编不下去了。＂-- Stephen
