Feng Youlan (1895-1990) was one of the leading philosophers and educators in 20th Century China and is widely credited with creating the discipline of comparative philosophy in modern China. He is the author of over 30 books and more than 500 articles on Eastern and Western philosophy, among them A New Treatise on Neo-Confucianism, On New Affairs, Explanation of the New World, A New Treatise on the Nautre of Man, The Spirit of Chinese Philosophy, and On the Methodology of Metaphysics.
Feng also compiled A History of Chinese Philosophy (in English) and A New Edition of A History of Chinese Philosophy (in seven volumes).
This single volume is derived from Feng's own 14-volume The Complete Works of the Hall of Three Pines.
