This book represents an ambitious attempt to remove the stumbling blocks that stand in the way of a dialogue between Chinese and world philosophy. Hansen's main goal is to present a unified theory of Classical Chinese thought. What makes his attempt very different from innumerable previous efforts is that he uses Daoism, not Confucianism, as the central and unifying principle.

This ambitious book presents a new interpretation of Chinese thought guided both by a philosopher''s sense of mystery and by a sound philosophical theory of meaning. That dual goal, Hansen argues, requires a unified translation theory. It must provide a single coherent account of the issues that motivated both the recently untangled Chinese linguistic analysis and the familiar moral-political disputes. Hansen''s unified approach uncovers a philosophical sophistication in Daoism that traditional accounts have overlooked.

Guided by 20th century theories of language, Hansen's novel approach to interpretive theory launched the modern analytical study of Ancient Chinese philosophy. This 1983 publication challenged authority-based traditional "religious" accounts stemming from 18th and 19th century missionary dictionaries and reliance on interpretive authority."Hansen shows that one tiny grammatical question… has profound implications for the understanding of Chinese philosophy. …This is surely a decisive breakthrough … a great success. His observations about Chinese thought in general are always stimulating and illuminating. A book which excites one to rethink things from the foundations." A. C. Graham"An ambitious and provocative book concerning the relationship between language and thought in ancient China. … a novel and powerful theory about the nature of classical Chinese language … a better understanding of many issues in classical Chinese philosophy." P. J. Ivanhoe"[The] importance of this book lies … in its engaging style, novel ideas, and rigorous argumentation, which can serve as a model for future work in Chinese philosophy. Hansen takes Chinese philosophy seriously as philosophy. For anyone tired of the superficial summaries or scholastic commentaries that so often characterize this field, Hansen's book will be a memorable and welcome change." Michael Martin
