Daoism: An Introduction - I.B.Tauris Introductions to Religion
Littlejohn, Ronnie L. (Belmont University, USA)
Discusses the central facets of Daoism, a tradition which can sometimes seem as elusive as the slippery notion of 'Dao' itself. This book shows that fundamental to Daoism is the notion of 'Wu-wei', or non-action: a paradoxical idea emphasizing alignment of the self with the harmony of the universe, a universe in continual flux and change.
