The Book of Chuang Tzu
of Zhuangzi, Burton Watson (Translator), Martin Palmer (Translator, Introduction), Elizabeth Breuilly (Translator)
Description
A Chinese classic, the Chuang Tzu was written sometime in the 4th century BC, and consists of original teachings, stories, tales and jokes told by Master Chuang, as well as others which have coalesced round his name. It is considered second only to the Tao Te Ching, but the two books coundn't be more different. Where the Tao Te Ching is distant and proverbial in style, the Chuang Tze buzzes with life and with insights, often with considerable humour behind them.
