AUTHOR

Arthur Waley

SUMMARY

"Whether he is 'journeying with Chuang Tzu in the realm of Nothing Whatever,' analyzing the Confucian ideal type of Government by Goodness (as advocated by Mencius), or discussing the practical advice to rulers given by Han Fei Tzu and other realists, Mr. Waley contrives, as is his wont, to extract savory and satisfying fare from the frequently dry bones of ancient Chinese philosophy. . . . The book is enhanced by the polished and lucid style of Mr. Waley's translations."The Times Literary Supplement "Chuang Tzu, Mencius, and the Realists, three conflicting points of view from the 4th century B.C., are discussed in this well-presented work."Second Wave Books on AsiaArthur Waley is the author of 'Three Ways of Thought in Ancient China', published 1939 under ISBN 9780804711692 and ISBN 0804711690.
