"This book is a coherent, systematic, and plausible explanation of the philosophy of Mengzi (Mencius), a 4th century BCE Confucian. It covers the full range of Mengzi's philosophy, from the place of human beings in nature, to human psychology and philosophy of emotions, to the various ways in which we can deliberately change and cultivate ourselves.
