- Draws on the latest research and incorporates interpretations of Confucius and his works by Chinese and Western scholars throughout the centuries
- Explores how Confucius's followers expanded and reinterpreted his ideas after his death, and how this process has continued throughout Chinese history
- Seamlessly links Confucius with our modern age, revealing how his teachings have become the basis of East Asian culture and influenced the West
