In this book, Mark Csikszentmihalyi tells the story of the life and thought of the Chinese thinker by exploring Confucius as a ritual prodigy, moral educator, scholar, and political draftsman. He also considers how Confucius has been used as a symbol for traditional Chinese culture in modern times--by those who want to radically reform or destroy it and by those who seek to preserve or revive it. \u003ci\u003eConfucius \u003c\/i\u003eprovides an insightful, accessible, and concise account of a key figure in East Asian thought.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMark Csikszentmihalyi\u003c\/b\u003e is professor and Eliaser Chair of international studies in the department of East Asian Languages and Cultures at the University of California, Berkeley.
