{"product_id":"9780473383688","title":"Meta-translation Lao Zi's Dao De Jing (Vol. II): The Physics of Psychology","description":"WARNING: This edition is updated to ISBN ISBN 978-0-473-42679-8. Free PDF copies @\u003cbr\u003ehttp:\/\/nemonik-thinking.org\/books.html\u003cp\u003eLao Zi's Dao De Jing is one of the most intriguing legacies received from ancient China. It conveys a harmonious art of living that reaches peacefully across the boundaries of race, religion, spiritualism, ideology, and science. This meta-translation of Lao Zi's manuscript is based on an English meta-analysis and a Chinese meta-analysis. The aim of those analyses is to take optimal advantage of the expertise already accumulated in previous studies of Dao De Jing. The English meta-analysis includes the following English translations-(Chan Wing-Tsit, 1988); (Cheng Gia-Fu and English, J, 1972); (Henricks, 1993); (Land, 1990); (Lau, 1985); (Lin, J. P., 1977); (Man-ho Kwok; Palmer, M.; \u0026amp; Ramsay, J., 1997); (Waley, 1968); and (Wing, 1986). Furthermore, the Chinese meta-analysis includes the following Chinese versions-Wang Bi (~249 AD); He-Shang Gong (~157 BC); Fu Yi (~200 BC); Mawangdui A and B (~200 BC); and Guodian A, B, and C (~300 BC). In contrast to popular belief, the results of this study support the notion that Dao De Jing is a secular manuscript about physics and psychology, rather than a sacred and spiritual scripture.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"nemonik-thinking.org","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49987402465520,"sku":"9780473383688","price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780473383688","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
