"Confucius is often misunderstood outside China. His sayings are frequently repeated out of context, with little attention paid to the conditions that shaped his view of the universe. Using new translations this book reveals many unexpected sides of the venerable philosopher - his younger years, his interaction with his pupils, his feuds with his enemies and even his biting wit. It also shows the way that his life and thoughts were influenced by events in the China of his day."
"Looks at the life and teachings of the Chinese philosopher."
