Book excerpt: Lao-tzu, the legendary sage of ancient China, is traditionally considered to be the author of the Tao Te Ching, one of the most popular classics of world literature. Now Lao-tzu's further teachings on the Tao, or Way, are presented here in the first English translation of the Chinese text known as the Wen-tzu. Although previously ignored by Western scholars, the Wen-tzu has long been revered by the Chinese as one of the great classics of ancient Taoism. In it, Lao-tzu shows that the cultivation of simplicity and spontaneity is essential to both the enlightened individual and the wise leader. This timeless work will appeal to a broad audience of contemporary readers who have come to consider Lao-tzu's Tao Te Ching a classic on the art of living.

Book excerpt: Lao Tzu, the legendary author of the Tao Te Ching , is also credited with the authorship of the Hua Hu Ching , which embodies some of his later teachings. During a time of political turmoil in the fourteenth century, all copies of this work were banned and ordered to be burned. Thus, few if any complete and accurate manuscripts exist today. Fortunately, the complete teachings of the Hua Hu Ching have been preserved through the oral transmission of generation after generation of Taoist masters to their disciples. In this book, Master Ni, heir to that orally transmitted wisdom, offers a superlative rendering of this reassured teaching.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: People talk about freedom of religion, freedom of speech, freedom of press etc. Do they really free us? Unfortunately, the truth is far beyond. Then, what is real freedom? Real freedom is not expecting anything in return from anybody. Can this be achieved? Yes..Lao Tzu and Shri Krishna show us the royal road to freedom. They show us how to win by losing...how to serve without taking credit..how to wage war without enmity...and that is the icing on the cake. Lao Tzu says 'be a guest' or live like a 'guest'. A guest stays for a short period of time. He will be accommodative and non-demanding and accept with gratitude whatever is offered by his host. We are here for a short period of time, just like the guest. In this period of our sojourn on this earth, if we develop the qualities of a guest just mentioned, we enjoy peace. The host also becomes more gracious with such a guest. They are comfortable with each other and such comfort in each others' presence is divine communion.

Book excerpt: Labor Relations in New Democracies explores how democratization has changed the material and political fortunes of workers in the new democracies of Europe, Latin America, and East Asia. It also examines how workers have responded to their newly found environment. The question is explored through analyses of labor compensation and industrial relations in these countries, and two detailed case studies. The study reveals that where workers have benefited the most from democratization - in Western Europe - they have also become more militant. At the other end of the spectrum, Eastern European countries, workers have benefitted the least from democratization. As a result, they have experienced declines in their ability to strike.
