Publisher's Note
In this terse, brilliant translation, Simon Leys restores the human dimension of Confucius, who emerges a full-blooded character with a passion for politics and a devotion to the ideals of a civilization he saw in decline.

Industry Reviews
"Leys is the most successful naturalizing translator of Confucius we have had..."
New Republic - Stephen Owen (05/04/1997)

"...Simon Leys has produced a sparkling, literate and punchy analysis which is all too brief and leaves the reader yearning for a longer treatment."
Times Literary Supplement - Hugh Baker (01/30/1998)
