Annotation

Munro was more than an intellectual mentor. He has been an unfailingsource of wisdom, inspiration, and support.Over five decades, Donald J. Munro has been one of the mostimportant voices in sinological philosophy. His rapprochement withcontemporary cognitive and evolutionary science helped bolster theinsights of Chinese philosophers, and set the standard for similarexplorations today. In this festschrift volume, students of Munro andscholars influenced by him celebrate Munro's body of work in essaysthat extend his legacy, exploring their topics as varied as the ethics ofZhuangzi's autotelicity, the teleology of nature in Zhu Xi, and familylove in Confucianism and Christianity.
