Criticized by another scholar for calling
Chuang's philosophy the "living, progressive wing of Confucianism" (most do not consider it Confucian at all). Tends to impose modern values on the text, but
useful for translating the entire text of the traditional Chuang Chou instead of only the Inner Chapters (as many) or selections (as in Watson).
