Re-reading this, and just to note, the audiobook version I'm listening to (the 2004 Minford translation) has a laughably racist introduction. Man. It's just... so transparently limited in its worldview. It's really best to read this work from a more general human vantage point than getting mired in whatever hot take conservative Westerners want to give on Chinese culture, because the lessons themselves are universal.
