Reviews

[Melanie Noell Bernard]

Having no real prior knowledge regarding Confucianism, I found this book to be a good introduction. I appreciated the explanation and experts from the texts that formed the Confucian belief system as well as how it impacted societal beliefs throughout history.

An Ok basic history of confucianism. Really aggrivates me that i never learned any of this stuff in either highschool or college.
