It began in China around the eleventh century CE, played a leading role in East Asian cultures over the last millennium, and has had a profound influence on modern Chinese society. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Based on the latest scholarship but presented in accessible language, \u003ci\u003eNeo-Confucianism: A Philosophical Introduction\u003c\/i\u003e is organized around themes that are central in Neo-Confucian philosophy, including the structure of the cosmos, human nature, ways of knowing, personal cultivation, and approaches to governance.
