Reviews
""Peterman has written a pioneering book, one that usefully compares Confucius and Wittgenstein ... Anyone interested in Confucius, Wittgenstein, or comparative philosophy will benefit from this book."" - Dao ""I cannot but highly recommend this work to all those interested in the analysis and understanding of the project of morality. To be sure, it will challenge those unfamiliar with Confucius or Wittgenstein, but the resulting benefits will be well worth the effort. Peterman is a very careful philosopher ... I consider this book an important example of philosophical work which does justice to both Confucius and Wittgenstein while advancing philosophical reflection beyond a mere comparison."" - Ronnie Littlejohn, Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews
