Negative Positive
Title: Patronising
Review: The one message I got from this book was, basically, "anyone can be a taoist if they're stupid", a message which would grate on the nerves of many intelligent people studying Taoism - and any other philosophical/religous movements. The author seems to take pride in stating - through the character of Pooh - "I am not very clever, ergo I'm a lot closer to the uncarved block than you are". Spare us! There's a difference between "not being interested in knowledge" and "being stupid". This book appears not to know the difference.For someone who knows nothing of Taoism, there may be some interesting thoughts in here, but I fear it may leave them with the impression that the only prerequisite for being a taoist is being fick.
Is the review positive or negative?
