Jane English grew up in a small town in New England, did undergraduate work at Mount Holyoke College, and began photographing while completing a Ph.D. in physics at the University of Wisconsin. She then decided not to continue with a science career but to do photography. Her black and white photographs of nature illustrate six books, including a best-selling translation of the Chinese classic Tao Te Ching, published in 1972 by Random House. Her other interests include gardening, skiing, amateur radio and hot air ballooning. She founded her own publishing business, Earth Heart, in 1985. After living in Mount Shasta, California for 15 years, Jane moved back to her native New England in 2002. Most of Jane's recent books and calendars have been published by Amber Lotus, giving her time to focus on creative work rather than on business matters.

Stores, get your order in early by calling us at (800) 326-2375.Towering 14,179 feet above sea level in far northern California, Mount Shasta is a landmark comparable to Japan's Mount Fuji. This majestic peak is the second highest volcano in the Cascade Range and part of the Pacific Ocean's "Ring of Fire." And while global warming is shrinking most of the world's glaciers, Mount Shasta provides a rare exception; it's seven glaciers continue to grow.

Translated by Gia-Fu Feng & Jane English
Brilliant, mystical, pragmatic and witty, some have called Chuang Tsu the world's first anarchist. Even 2,000 years after his death, this provocative Taoist text remains in the forefront of ancient Chinese philosophical study. A companion to the Tao Te Ching, Chuang Tsu: Inner Chapters is a spiritual classic in its own right and a source book second only to the Tao Te Ching in importance in the Taoist canon. The sublime prose serves as a profound and paradoxical commentary to the Tao Te Ching. Read more...

These cassettes are the perfect companion to the Chuang Tsu: Inner Chapters book. Although little is known of the life of this ancient Chinese sage, his wisdom and laughter reach across the centuries to speak directly to our lives today. Chuang Tsu saw through the illusory nature of this world, anticipating Zen Buddhism with its emphasis on the power of emptiness. With soaring fantasy and sometimes not so gentle humor, Chuang Tsu addresses every man and woman seeking enlightenment in the midst of all the problems of life. Read more...
