Explanation
The book you've mentioned, "The Scripture of the Way and Its Potent Manifestation" is more known by its modern term Tao Te Ching (or Dao De Jing), which is a fundamental text for both philosophical and religious Taoism. It also strongly influenced other schools, notably Legalism, Confucianism, and Chinese Buddhism. But it wasn't written by either Confucius, Mencius, or Zhuangzi. According to Chinese Literary History, it was traditionally attributed to Laozi, also as Lao-Tze, who was an ancient philosopher and poet of ancient China.
