"The Spirit of the Chinese People" by Ku Hung-Ming, published by The Commercial Press, Work Ltd. in Peking in 1922, is a second edition that delves deeply into the cultural and philosophical aspects of Chinese society. Ku Hung-Ming, an esteemed scholar with a Master of Arts from Edinburgh, provides an insightful essay on civilisation and anarchy, reflecting on the intricate dynamics of Chinese civilisation. This edition, distinct from others due to its early 20th-century publication and perspective, is particularly valuable for those interested in cultural studies and philosophy. The book is ex-library, indicating its previous use in a library setting, but it remains a significant work for understanding the ethos of the Chinese people. The physical condition of the book is fair, with no dust jacket, and it lacks any inscriptions or signatures.
