Octavo 9 1/2 x 6 1/4 inches tall. Tao: The Watercourse Way is a 1975 non-fiction book on Taoism and philosophy and is Alan Watts' last book. It was published posthumously in 1975 with the collaboration of Al Chung-liang Huang who also contributed a preface and afterword and with additional calligraphy by Lee Chih-chang. Drawing on ancient and modern sources Watts treats the Chinese philosophy of Tao in much the same way as he did Zen Buddhism in his classic The Way of Zen. Critics agree that this last work stands as a perfect monument to the life and literature of Alan Watts.--Publisher description A gaily highhanded epicurean book as Watts was increasingly inclined to produce in his later years and boxed in as it is between collaborator Al Chung-liang Huang's worshipful and pained fore- and afterwords it is a gem to remember Watts by. As Huang explains the text was allowed to write itself in the spirit of the Tao which means in practice that a footnote can be omitted and the interpretive tendency is latitudinarian; and Watts takes care to beg off as a scholar ". . . meticulous explorations of cultural anthropology have their virtue but I am more interested in how these ancient writings reverberate on the harp of my own brain which has of course been tuned to the scales of Western culture"--la!. Yet there is a flamboyant and fascinating display of learning more interesting than the fine Western tuning which pulls its strongest signals from the 1960's and complex indications of a personality that seems to have resisted inner pacification. Lively sweeping momentum with ideograms by Huang bibliography and streamlined notes. Good introduction to the Tao. ---Kirkus 1975 Pantheon hardcover books

Both parts of Paine's famous work in defense of political revolution. The first part was originally printed in 1791 and the second part followed the next year. "Rights of Man 1791 a book by Thomas Paine including 31 articles posits that popular political revolution is permissible when a government does not safeguard the natural rights of its people. Using these points as a base it defends the French Revolution against Edmund Burke's attack in Reflections on the Revolution in France 1790." "Thomas Paine February 9 1737 O.S. January 29 1736 â June 8 1809 was an author pamphleteer radical inventor intellectual revolutionary and one of the Founding Fathers of the United States. Born in Thetford Norfolk Paine emigrated to the British American colonies in 1774 in time to participate in the American Revolution. His principal contributions were the powerful widely-read pamphlet Common Sense 1776 advocating colonial America's independence from the Kingdom of Great Britain and The American Crisis 1776â1783 a pro-revolutionary pamphlet series. The historian Saul K. Padover in the biography Jefferson: A Great American's Life and Ideas refers to Paine as "a corsetmaker by trade a journalist by profession and a propagandist by inclination." Paine greatly influenced the French Revolution. He wrote the Rights of Man 1791 a guide to Enlightenment ideas. Despite not speaking French he was elected to the French National Convention in 1792. The Girondists regarded him as an ally so the Montagnards especially Robespierre regarded him as an enemy. In December of 1793 he was arrested and imprisoned in Paris then released in 1794. He became notorious because of The Age of Reason 1793â94 his book advocating deism promoting reason and freethinking and arguing against institutionalized religion and Christian doctrines. He also wrote the pamphlet Agrarian Justice 1795 discussing the origins of property and introduced the concept of a guaranteed minimum income. Paine remained in France during the early Napoleonic era but condemned Napoleon's dictatorship calling him "the completest charlatan that ever existed". In 1802 at President Jefferson's invitation he returned to America where he died on June 8 1809. Only six people attended his funeral as he had been ostracized for his criticisms and ridicule of Christianity. Published for D. Jordan, Piccadilly hardcover books
