President George W. Bush is a twenty-first century Texas politician with values from America’s old west. The Tao Te Ching is a 2000-year-old Chinese manuscript of wisdom and advice. What would happen if the President were to read this ancient text? Ed Bremson explores this question in The Tao of George W. Bush, a humorous, sometimes irreverent, imaginative look at the similarities and differences between the Oriental mind and the Texan mind. As the reader will find, the President more than holds his own in this fanciful meeting of East and West.
