Profound insights on the art of leadership from the Huainanzi-a classic of Taoist philosophy-for every part of life and for every would-be leader. The subtle arts of management and leadership have been developed over thousands of years by the Chinese. The Huainanzi, translated here, represents the Taoist culmination of this long tradition and is one of the most prestigious works of ancient Chinese thought. It offers insightful teachings on the challenges of leadership on all levels, from organizational management to political statecraft. The translator, Thomas Cleary, has chosen and arranged these teachings to emphasize the most valuable lessons of Taoist wisdom for modern Western readers. A vital companion to Cleary's best-selling translation of The Art of War by Sun Tzu, this work will serve as an enlightening guide for people in business, management, politics, government, and everyday life--
