Life Force
Philosophy of Tao.


ISBN 0-9542932-0-7

For many years nothing has been available save a few, very variable, translations of Lao Tzu's 'Tao Te Ching' [The Way of Nature]. Professor Mike Symonds has studied Taoism with a view to understanding the essential principles. This book sets out to explore what Taoism is, where it stemmed from and how it affects us in every day life. Many people are half familiar with the principles of Tao's main forces, Yin and Yang, especially as they represent female & male, night & day or receive & give out, respectively.

For the first time an enlightening script has been presented in plain English that combines the essential principles of the original Chinese philosophy without religious connotations or complicated pretexts. Taoism is essentially a simple philosophy but is capable of being understood on many levels and to many uses; such as in Traditional Chinese Medicine, descriptions of food values, exercise, Martial Arts principles, love, sex and relationships, medical diagnostics of Traditional Chinese Medicine and much more. All of these areas are covered in the twelve thought provoking chapters. Mike warns the reader, "This book could completely change the way you look at your life... for the better!".
