Lao Tzu: Tao Te Ching: A Book about the Way and the Power of the Way by Laozi

2.0

Sure, there's wisdom here. But much of it sounds like Aristotle and Aquinas' bumpkin cousin. You'll find "natural law" and even an unmoved mover here. You'll find dislike of what is new, and what feels to me like a constrained, joyless golden mean as well.

Underwhelmed. I love Le Guin and appreciate that for her and many, this book is a wellspring. I'm sorry; I haven't found much water here.
