Most accessible translation
I have been reading the Tao Te Ching regularly for almost 15 years. I have 4 or 5 different translations I reference. But Jonathan's translation is the one I come back to most often. It strikes the right balance between literal and paraphrase. I am continually delighted by fresh insights- year after year. Highly recommended!
Off center
This version is unreadable and off center making most of the words incomplete. Very frustrating.
