Chuang Tsu/ Inner Chapters is a companion volume to che translation of Lao Tsu/Tao Te Ching, which has enjoyed such a great success since its publication in 1972. Both are the work of Gia-fu Feng and Jane English.

Chuang Tsu was to Lao Tsu as Saint Paul was to Jesus and Plato to Socrates. This book contains what are known as the seven "Inner Chapters" of his teaching that part of his work which is acknowledged by scholars as having definitely been written by him. Chuang Tsu developed the doctrines of Taoism with rigorous logic. His fables and bumor are imaginative and poetic, reflecting a brilliant and original mind. He advocated relativity with regard to all standards and values. He was at once a mystic and a revolutionary. The rhythm of life and its organic vision, an idea poetically implied by Lao Tsu, is brought to perfect expression in the writings of Chuang Tsu.
