About the Book
The Tao Te Ching by Laozi is the philosophical inception of all Chinese thoughts and concepts. There are three most important versions of the book: the original Wang Bi's version, the silk book (versions A and B) and the Chu Jian version. This edition is mainly based on Chu Jian and Version A of the silk book, with supplement of the text of Version B. If the supplement is incomplete, this book uses Wang Bi's version. Both Version A of the silk book and Chu Jian were before the Western Han Dynasty (206 BC – AD 25). It was the period when Laozi rescued the highest prestige and Confucianism was in the doldrums. They were not tampered with by the emperors and Confucianism. It is the intention of the author that readers not be meddled with in the correction and proofreading of Confucian scholars and materialist dialectics.
