Roger T. Ames is a professor of Chinese philosophy at the
University of Hawai'i. He is also editor of the journal Philosophy
East & West. He is the author of several interpretive studies of
classical Confucianism, including Thinking Through Confucius (with
David L. Hall). His translation of Sun-tzu- The Art of Warfare is
recognized as a landmark of contemporary Chinese military and
philosophical studies and his translation of The Analects of
Confucius (with Henry Rosemont, Jr.) has become a popular classroom
text.
David L. Hall was a professor of Philosophy at the University of
Texas at El Paso. His early research on A. N. Whitehead and
American philosophy led him to rethink our understanding of both
Daoism and classical Greek philosophy, and resulted in the
publication of The Uncertain Phoenix and Eros and Irony. In
addition to the interpretive studies of classical Chinese
philosophy, he continued to publish in American philosophy with
Richard Rorty- Prophet and Poet of the New Pragmatism.
“A NEW ENGLISH VERSION OF THE CLASSIC CHINESE DAO DE JING . . .
Provoke[s] the reader to see the text with fresh eyes.
This is a valuable find for anyone who wants to reengage a
foundational work.”
