Cheng Man-ch´ing and T´ai Chi

 Zheng Manqing(1902–1975) — also romanized as Cheng Man-ch’ing — certainly played a lead role in popularizing tai chi ch’uan throughout the world and greatly influencing the way the art is perceived and practiced. This fact alone should drive all those interested in taijiquan to study the man’s history and thought.
