This book provides a comprehensive overview of the spirit of Chinese Confucianism, which is usually regarded as one of the most important aspects of traditional Chinese culture. In addition to the general history, the book explores the extensive concepts of Confucianism, such as its philosophy, core values and social ideals, humanistic theories, ritual and music culture, and statecraft and wisdom of governance. Beyond the introductory information, it ushers Confucianism into the modern realm, discussing and elaborating on its humanistic spirit characteristics, its significance and value in the modern context, and how it should be engaged in the creative transformation of economic globalization. The book is divided into twelve chapters, each developing from a single focal point to cover a vast array of knowledge that combines philosophy, academics, and readability. It brings Confucianism to the readers by explaining complex and profound Confucian philosophy and actions in a language that is accessible. .
