About this ebook

A concise introductory guide. Can a change of perspective make action wiser without making truth disappear? This original English guide explores the Zhuangzi’s butterfly dream, free wandering, skill, useful uselessness, transformation, language, and dispute. It distinguishes the composite book from the uncertain historical author and tests its insights against objections about responsibility, evidence, and power. Eighteen chapters, a glossary, annotated sources, and an invented reservoir case invite a rigorous reading. An introduction, not a translation.
