According to Laotzu, 'If we are at peace with ourselves and the world around us, success will come unsought.' Advocating poise, serenity, and complete assurance, Laotzu teaches men and women to work with nature rather than resist it.The Tao Speaks offers the centuriesold wisdom of the Tao to modern readers searching for new ways to bring meaning to life.

This is cartooning of the highest order.' Larry Gonick, author of The Cartoon History Of The Universe, Volumes I and II.
