Reviews

In this reinterpretation of Chinese philosophy vis-a-vis Western philosophy, Rosker has persuasively repudiated the China has no philosophy fallacy and offered a new approach to understanding Chinese philosophy. Provocative and lucidly written, it is a must read for scholars and thinkers interested in the fusion of Chinese and Western thought and culture. * Ming Dong Gu, Professor of Comparative Literature, University of Texas at Dallas, USA * Jana Rosker's innovative volume does more than provide a new way of interpreting Chinese philosophy. Her insightful notion of a transcultural philosophy of sublation, which draws upon the dynamic structuring of complementary binary categories and referential frameworks of traditional Chinese philosophy, provides a new model for doing post-comparative philosophy creatively. * John Makeham, Emeritus Professor, La Trobe University and The Australian National University, Australia * Erudite, nuanced, and refreshing, Rosker's book makes a significant contribution to studying fundamental issues of Chinese philosophy from a comparative perspective. I strongly recommend it to everyone interested in the topic. * Chenyang Li, Professor of Philosophy, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore *
