A concise alphabetic guide to the main concepts, figures, topics and important movements of thought that have shaped Chinese philosophy over the last three thousand years. The entries are concisely written, terms are cross-referenced and transcriptions are typically given in the pinyin system. Chinese Philosophy A-Z stresses philosophical relevance in choosing entries while paying due attention to historical links between relevant ideas and movements of thought. The volume also shows how some of the central ideas under discussion contribute to the philosophical enterprise as a whole. The book is aimed at students, teachers of philosophy, and educated non-specialists who are interested in Chinese philosophy, particularly those readers new to Chinese philosophy.
Bo Mou is Director of the Center for Comparative Philosophy at San José State University in California, USA. He has published in analytic philosophy, Chinese philosophy and comparative philosophy, concerning philosophy of language, metaphysics, philosophical methodology and ethics. He is contributing editor of Comparative Approaches to Chinese Philosophy (2003), Davidson's Philosophy and Chinese Philosophy (2006), Searle's Philosophy and Chinese Philosophy (2008), and History of Chinese Philosophy (2008)
