Summary: Who are they kidding?
Comment: Pretentious, self-indulgent, and a waste of money! Buy a different translation. I was more enlightened by Dr. Seuss's "Horton hears a Who". Too bad there isn't a zero star option.
Rating: 1
Summary: Utter Drivel
Comment: The authors have no concept whatsoever about the beauty and simplicity of this document.
Instead they use their academic doublespeak to try and intellectualize "The Way".
I highly recommend that THEY read Tolle's "Power of Now".
This book is stomuch-turning to anyone seeking a path to enlightenment.
Rating: 5
Summary: going to the source
Comment: Ames and Hall have pulled in the often-neglected cosmological origins of the DDJ, inspired by strips found with the Guodian strips.
The authors have been meticulous in picking through the intricacies of some fairly complex terms in a thorough, yet succinct, way.
I really really like the holistic perspective in the authors' interpretation of the verses. Instead of feeling like I'm being preached at from the pulpit, it feels like I'm sitting at a table over coffee and listening. It is with great sorrow that I read of Hall's passing. Knowing this team of writers will collaborate no more makes me sad.
