Freedom as Self-Realization: Dimensions of Zide 自得 Conclusion: ""Freedom In"" and Social Change Notes References Index"Reviews"""The greatest strength of this book is that it tries to bridge the divide between Eastern and Western philosophy by engaging the thought of an understudied early medieval thinker, Guo Xiang, in response to a philosophical problem being discussed in the modern Anglophone world—namely, the question of freedom. The author argues that Guo's conceptions can help to formulate a definition of freedom that goes beyond the binary of 'freedom from'/ 'freedom to,' which is the core of relevant discussions in the Anglophone world, by proposing a 'freedom in,' or what the author calls 'dependence-based autonomy.'"" — Friederike Assandri, University of Leipzig" Author InformationChristine Abigail L.
