book suggestions?
 
I need some book suggestions on Taoism. I would prefer non opinionated books. Books strictly explaining the basics of it. Thanks.

GreenGazer,

Go straight to the source. Start with the Tao Te Ching and the Chuang Tzu, the two texts from which modern Taoism was derived.

Taoism by Eva Wong is a good general survey with lots of recommendations for further reading.
Taoist body by Kristofer Schipper is interesting in that the author trained as a Daoist priest in Taiwan. He does tend to be a bit snobbish in his attitude to popular beliefs, though.
