Confucius Speaks : Words to Live By

In Confucius Speaks, the teachings of the man described by many as the greatest sage of all time are brought vividly to life by the wonderfully endearing and entertaining characters drawn by East Asia's most famous cartoonist, Tsai Chih Chung. Selecting key passages from the Analects of Confucius, one of the most influential books in Chinese history, Tsai Chih Chung has created a marvelously rich introduction to a beloved classic that has much to offer modern readers.
