Drawing on evocative examples from philosophical texts, literature, and everyday life over centuries of Chinese history, Sterckx introduces major thinkers and traditions, illuminates key concepts like thedao,qi,yin, andyang, and examines questions of leadership, social order, death, nature, and more.
