Reviews

Original is Great, Editing is Lacking

By Nat the Gray
This short book has more typos than I've seen in years of reading. It seems that it was probably automatically digitized using OCR and some things got lost (like "in" becoming "m").

So Tao Te Ching gets 5-stars, this edition gets 3.
Terrible Translation

By amyserafin
This is one of the worst translations I’ve read. I found Christian overtones seeping through. Deleted the book. Ugh.

“Knowledge of the Tao, how vast! I am like a sailor far beyond a place of anchorage, adrift on a boundless ocean. Common people are useful, I am awkward. I stand in contrast to them--but oh, the prize I seek is food from our Mother Tao!”
Interesting.
