{"product_id":"the-way-of-the-world-thomas-cleary-9781590307380","title":"The Way of the World: Readings in Chinese Philosophy","description":"The dynamic relationship between the individual and society has been a central concern of Taoism from its ancient beginnings--which is perhaps why certain Taoist classics, like Sun Tzu's \u003ci\u003eArt of War, \u003c\/i\u003eare so often consulted these days for leadership advice. This anthology presents a wide range of texts revealing the processes of integrating personal spirituality with social responsibility central to Taoist tradition across the centuries and throughout the schools. There are a wealth of approaches to life in the world presented here, but at the heart of each is an understanding that even a mystic must be socially responsible and that self-cultivation is primary preparation for anyone called to lead.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Thomas Cleary\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1590307380\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781590307380\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Shambhala\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/01\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 126\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.45lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 5.90w x 0.40d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eReference and Research Bk News\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/01\/2010 pg. 2","brand":"Thomas Cleary","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43938460074239,"sku":"9781590307380","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_6c53e7ea-06e4-4dd3-ba6c-3bc3e54f8477.jpg?v=1681435815","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-way-of-the-world-thomas-cleary-9781590307380","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
