Description
Chinese Philosophy explores the rich and complex history of Chinese thought from its earliest beginnings to the present day.
The book delves into key concepts such as the I Ching, or Zhouyi, which forms the foundation of Chinese philosophy, and examines the ideas of influential thinkers like Confucius, Mencius, Laozi, and Zhuangzi. It also covers Chinese metaphysics, cosmology, epistemology, and the development of Buddhism in China.
From the Han Dynasty to modern times, Chinese Philosophy provides a comprehensive overview of the subject, highlighting its unique perspectives on the world and its place within the broader context of Eastern thought.
