Daoism Explained offers an interpretation of the tenets of Daoist
philosophy on the basis of the imagery employed in various Daoist
texts. The author explains the significance of such images as water
and the female and allegories such as the "Dream of the Butterfly,"
and shows how they connect to each other and how ancient Chinese
philosophers understood them. The book also sheds new light on many
important allegories by showing how modern translations often
conceal the wit and humor of the Chinese original. Written for
those who are interested in Asian beliefs and religions as well as
for specialists in the field of comparative and Chinese philosophy,
Daoism Explained is a comprehensive and fascinating - yet
easy-to-follow - introduction to Daoist thought.
