Notes on this version

I have made some minor adjustments to the official translation to enhance readability. I have also converted the spelling from UK English to US English. I have also included some definitions for obscure words and word pictures for those words that were developed by the original translator to express Chinese phraseology, all with the intent of making this version more readable by a broader mass of people. Any questions or errors regarding this document may be directed to me, David Quentin Dauthier. Please use the subject: "the quotations" in your email.

 

Translator's Note

Unless otherwise stated, the page number given for the source of a quotation refers to the first English edition of the book or pamphlet cited as published by the Foreign Languages Press, Peking. In cases where a word or phrase linked to the preceding text has been omitted in the opening sentence of the quotation, an asterisk is placed after the source. This is also done in a number of places where the English rendering has been reworded to make up for omission of context or to improve the translation.
