Product Description
Having masterfully translated a wide range of ancient Chinese poets and philosophers, David Hinton is uniquely qualified to offer the definitive contemporary English version of the Tao Te Ching, rendering it with both philosophical rigor and poetic elegance. Lao Tzu's Tao Te Ching is not only the single most important text in Chinese spirituality, it is probably the most influential spiritual text in human history. Like all of his translations, Hinton's translation of the Tao Te Ching is mind-opening. It adds startling new dimensions to this text, revealing it as the originary text of deep environmental and feminist thought. In the past, virtually all translations of this text have been produced either by sinologists having little poetic facility in English, or writers having no ability to read the original Chinese. Hinton's fluency in ancient Chinese and his acclaimed poetic ability combine both of these essential qualifications. Together, they allow a breathtaking new translation that reveals how remarkably current and even innovative this text is after 2500 years.

 Tao Te Ching by Lao Tzu March 29, 2010
Ron Reynolds (NSW, Australia)
This is the single most important text in Chinese Spirituallity.
The translation successfully show us how current it is to present day writing and thought. It has the strains of deep environmental and Feminist thought running through it.
And I recommend it all readers of Poetry.

I was touched by not only the wisdom of he text, but also by the beauty of the translation. The text is deep, yet simple. This is very efficient communication. Each section is easy to memorize, yet provides food for thought and analysis for hours. It is surprisingly relevant for an ancient text. The translation brings a nice consistency to the ideas, and highlights the poetic nature of this writing. This is one of my favorite books.

To add to the positive reviews:
I have had experience with a few different translations of the Tao Te Ching, and I feel that this is by far the best--my favorite. To keep it short, the reason that I feel the Hinton translation to be the best is that it retains a closeness to and respect for the original Chinese--it has a rigour to it--while also capturing perfectly a sense of the poetry, the beauty, the ambiguity of the text. It is a translation that only Hinton could do, but it is also a translation that keeps the original at its center.
The importance of this is seen in those unfortunate versions of the Tao Te Ching in which the gaudy mark of the translator is too evident, and too personal--the experience of the text is altered, and not in a good way. Hinton, on the other hand, interprets the text and its poetry, but only insofar as is needed to communicate it to an English-speaking reader, who in turn has the freedom to interpret it for his- or herself. And he does it beautifully.
Also, because it hasn't been noted yet: the introduction gives a brief history of the origins of the concepts and text of the Tao Te Ching; it was concise, clear, and helpful in illuminating the text. The glossary was also useful in quickly clarifying the meaning of certain key terms and different interpretations of their Chinese originals.
Simplicity in translation May 2, 2008

David Hinton does a nice job of not jumbling up this translation. I can think of a few translations of the TTC that use very technical and archaic words to create a sense of majesty about the TTC. But to me this book has always been about simplicity and wordless teaching.
As someone that has pursued mystical states before I find this translation is easy to remember and conducive to a quick recall when observing the natural world or doing some form of physical exercise.
I've read that the TTC in Chinese reads like a telegram with multiple meanings available from the same words. Hinton's translation is like that and he makes a good attempt of rendering the spirit of the text, even if, he's not always literally correct (I'm thinking of the mysterious chapter 50).
Good translation with a few drawbacks but if your looking for a good introductory text read this

I recently purchased this book on line and was very happy with the service from Amazon and unhappy with the book. I find it very boring and difficult to understand as a Westerner "who wanna be" an Easterner. Surely there must be a more Western friendly interpretation of the Tao Te Ching.
