Written more than two thousand years ago, the scripture on Tao and Virtue is a guide to cultivating a life of peace, serenity, and compassion. It is the foundational philosophical work of all Taoism and one of the true classics of spiritual literature. Usually translated as the "Way", the Tao is the mysterious process through which everything in the Universe happens. The Tao Te Ching is actually the second-most translated book after the Bible.

Psychlogical Support.
I have found this little book to be of great benefit when looking for mantra's or beautiful sentences to use in my stress management and relaxation therapy work. The cost of this little gem was excellent and I received it extremely quickly following order. I would recommend this as something to always keep at hand.

Do read this book - if you can get it.
The Tao Te Ching is a life altering book. I like it a great deal and have owned a number of different editions. Lao Tzu's ancient wisdom is always meaningful - the illustrated edition with calligraphy and beautiful black and white pictures is especially desirable - which is why I ordered it for a friend for Christmas - (however I have yet to receive it and so had to give her mine - I do hope the replacement arrives).
My tip is that you should order more than one copy so that you will always have at least one to give away (and still have one for yourself).

Have to be ready to read
Tao Te Ching is one of those books you must want to read and not have to read. It is full of details and sometimes can make you stop reading it but you will return to it. It is a good book to keep for a long time.
