The impressive essays in this volume extend Kupperman's approach with stimulating reflections on character, emotions, and well-being. - Stephen C. Angle, author of Contemporary Confucian Political Philosophy Each essay by a major figure in comparative philosophy is a masterful engagement with the Confucian tradition that reveals its resources for us today. Scholars and students of both Chinese philosophy and comparative philosophy will want to read this impressive volume. - Owen Flanagan, author of The Bodhisattva's Brain: Buddhism Naturalized
