The translation of Red Pine and his collection of classic commentary is excellent. My favorite for insight and translation is the definitive work by Ellen Chen. Her commentary is deep and rich. She is a native Chinese reader and western graduated scholar. All her books on Taoism are brilliant and deeply rewarding. Though her own scholarly analysis text on Taoism is not an essay read but a excellent comparison and contrast of Western thinking to Lao Tzu text.(less)
