Many of the brightest Chinese minds have used the form of the
commentary to open the terse and poetic chapters of the Laozi to
their readers and also to develop a philosophy of their own. None
has been more sophisticated, philosophically probing, and
influential in the endeavor than a young genius of the third
century C.E., Wang Bi (126-249). In this book, Rudolf G. Wagner
provides a full translation of the Laozi that extracts from Wang
Bi's Commentary the manner in which he read the text, as well as a
full translation of Wang Bi's Commentary and his essay on the
"subtle pointers" of the Laozi. The result is a Chinese reading of
the Laozi that will surprise and delight Western readers familiar
with some of the many translations of the work.
