In this book, Mark Csikszentmihalyi tells the story of the life and thought of the Chinese thinker by exploring Confucius as a ritual prodigy, moral educator, scholar, and political draftsman. He also considers how Confucius has been used as a symbol for traditional Chinese culture in modern times--by those who want to radically reform or destroy it and by those who seek to preserve or revive it. \u003ci\u003eConfucius \u003c\/i\u003eprovides an insightful, accessible, and concise account of a key figure in East Asian thought.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Ingram Book Company","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53052325691623,"sku":"Fiction: China","price":22.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0724\/3680\/9959\/files\/ean-9781836390114.jpg?v=1794519671","url":"https:\/\/jfbooks.org\/products\/9781836390114","provider":"JF Books | 季風書園","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
