About this audiobook
A concise introductory guide. What if the urge to control is making a problem worse? This original English guide reads the Laozi through dao, naturalness, wuwei, effective power, simplicity, and restraint in government. It distinguishes an influential Old Master legend from the composite text, tests the appeal of noncoercive action against urgent duties to protect, and examines the political risks of quietism. Eighteen chapters, an annotated source guide, and a fully invented river case make the paradoxes concrete. An introduction, not a translation.
