Sobre IBD

The Tao Te Ching is a 2000 year-old Chinese manuscript of wisdom and advice. Almost half the manuscript deals with politics, government and war. It therefore seems natural to seek guidance, in those pages, for how to think about any political landscape, and especially the American political scene. That’s what Ed Bremson does in The Tao of Politics. Using the Tao Te Ching as his starting-point and guide, he writes about politics from an Eastern perspective. He uses timeless ideas to cast light on modern problems. The result is a stimulating, thought-provoking book, at times irreverent, at times humorous, and often unexpected. It’s not the last word on politics. It’s certainly not the first word. But in many ways it could be the next word.
