Product Description
This brief text assists readers in understanding Chuang Tzu's philosophy and thinking so they can more fully engage in useful, intelligent dialogue and improve their understanding of content. Part of the Wadsworth Notes Series, (which will eventually consist of approximately 100 titles, each focusing on a single "thinker" from ancient times to the present), ON CHUANG TZU is written by a philosopher deeply versed in the philosophy of this key thinker. Like other books in the series, this concise book offers sufficient insight into the thinking of a notable philosopher, better enabling readers to engage in reading and to discuss the material in class and on paper.

On Chuang Tzu by Hyun Höchsmann. November 16, 2001
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
The monogram on the philosophy of Chuang-tzu by Hyun Höchsmann is a very welcome introduction to an important Chinese thinker who is less well known in the West than Lao Tze or Confucius, whose ideas, Höchsmann shows, he synthesized in a highly oroiginal way. Chuang-Tzu is often thought of as a Taoist but Hyun Höchsmann shows that he has much in common with Confucianism as well, particularly in recognizing the importance of cooperative social relationships. Her book is a paradigm of elegant clarity in its appreciation of ancient Chinese thought.Raziel Abelson Professor Emeritus of Philosophy
