John Ching Hsiung Wu[a] (also John C.H. Wu; Traditional Chinese: 吳經熊; pinyin: Wu Jingxiong) (28 March 1899, Ningbo – 6 February 1986) was a Chinese jurist and author. He wrote works in Chinese, English, French, and German on Christian spirituality, Chinese literature (including a translation of the Tao Te Ching) and on legal topics. On his Tao Te Ching translation, Thomas Merton said Wu's work was "absolutely necessary for us not only to progress but even to survive."[1]
