The Ways of Confucianism
Investigations in Chinese Philosophy

David S. Nivison
Edited with an introduction by Bryan W. Van Norden

In this collection of essays, most never before published, Nivison presents nuanced and subtle interpretations of key thinkers from over two thousand years in the Confucian movement, ranging from Confucius himself through his early proponents.

"Exemplary in its breadth and depth of focus and challenges scholars worldwide to the study of our most recurring problems . . . an extraordinary contribution to sinology and comparative philosophy."
