The New Analects: Confucious Reconstructed
A Modern Reader
This is the first time that both the logic and profundity of Confucian theory has sprung so directly from the text.
Without the loss or addition of a single character the New Analects display an appearance that is utterly different from that of the past—the arguments are fresh, the themes coherent, the ideas clearly differentiated and the exposition lucid.
