Ames Veteran Registered: 05/29/05 Posts: 1117	Didn't see this before. I like the William Scott Wilson translation myself. But the Cleary one comes in a nice pocket size edition. As for the main differences, they are just diffirent translator's so they each approach the text in their own way. I'd read the first ten pages of each and see which one 'speaks to you'. -Chris Edited by Ames (12/01/08 04:27 AM) _________________________ "Seek not to follow in the footsteps of the men of old; seek what they sought." --Basho
