This is an interpretation of the Tao Te Ching from the viewpoint of a Taoist Qigong Teacher, hence the world Alchemist in the title. Therefore, it is how to transform oneself through those practices, with his translation relating to that medium. As a Qigong teacher/practitioner, I can relate to this and appreciate that each of the 81 chapters also has a practice and haiku for one to not just read, but experience the Tao Te Ching. Excellent book and addition to by extensive TTC library.
