About the journal
This wide ranging journal is essential reading for anyone who wants to understand the diverse themes and influences that shape Chinese thought today. It features translations of the most current and influential Chinese writings on all aspects of philosophical endeavor, from theoretical essays on systems to studies of China's cultural and religious development, from interpretations of the Chinese classics to exegeses on Marxist thought. To any student of Chinese thought, traditional or contemporary, this periodical is probably the best English source for a good understanding of subjects discussed by Chinese Marxist philosophers today. --Charles Wei-hsun Fu, Temple University
