delightful graphic adaptation of the profound and humorous Daoist writings of Zhuangzi  some of

Nature brings together all of Tsai's beguiling cartoon illustrations of the Zhuangzi  which
takes its name from its author. The result is a uniquely accessible and entertaining adaptation
of a pillar of classical Daoism  which has deeply influenced Chinese poetry  landscape painting
martial arts  and Chan (Zen) Buddhism. Irreverent and inspiring  The Way of Nature presents the
memorable characters  fables  and thought experiments of Zhuangzi like no other edition 
challenging readers to dig beneath conventional assumptions about self  society  and nature 
and pointing to a more natural way of life. Through practical insights and far-reaching
arguments  Zhuangzi shows why returning to the spontaneity of nature is the only sane response
to a world of conflict.
