“This attractive little book tells what all Western readers should know about Confucius and why his teachings are important. They are teachings that have influenced Chinese life for two and a half millenniums and expressed universal human ideals that have helped to shape civilization. Archie Bahm… author of ‘The World’s Living Religions’ as well as other books, has extracted the major important books attributed, directly or indirectly, to Confucius: ‘Chung Yung’ (rendered as ‘Genuine Living’) and ‘Ta Hsueh’ (‘Great Wisdom’). Mr. Bahm presents these teachings in a lively, accessible prose, which is embellished with 16th-century woodblock prints from a life of Confucius.”—New York Times No library descriptions found. |
