Chinese Dialectics: From Yijing to Marxism

They say that a good question always raises more questions then answers and this book was written in this kind of spirit and context.A big question that underlined the subject which discussed in this book is this,"What exactly is Humanity?". Oh,oh,...this archaic question is not easy to answer! Billions of peoples live on earth, so there will be billions of answers to that. Author aware of this fact, so basically he just tells readers a new outlook then let's them to answer it from their own personal points of views.It's difficult reading especially for one who are not familiar with traditional customs but it is definitely a good book.

This study gives the reader a key for understanding chinese marxism and the reception of marxism in China. It gives some clue why marxism is a succes in china. Marxism was a faillure in the west and so chinese marxism is an enigma to the west ( as is market socialism with chinese charateristics ). The mantra of " Chinese caracteristics " is clarified. A bridge to understanding complex east-west relations. Highly recommanded.Victor Wesseling.
