{"product_id":"from-being-to-living-franois-jullien-9781526487292","title":"From Being to Living: A Euro-Chinese Lexicon of Thought","description":"This new English translation of Fran輟is Jullien's work is a compelling summation of his thinking on the comparison and divergences between Western and Chinese thought. Jullien argues that Western thinking is preoccupied with the question of 'being', whereas Chinese thought concerned itself principally with that of 'living'.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Organised as a lexicon around some 20 concepts that juxtapose Chinese and Western thought, including propensity (vs causality), receptivity (vs freedom), maturation (vs modelisation), between (vs beyond) and resource (vs truth). Jullien explores the ways the two traditions have evolved, and how many aspects of Chinese thought developed in isolation from the West, revealing a different way of relating to the world and the fault lines of western thinking.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e An important book for students and scholars throughout the social sciences.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Fran輟is Jullien, Michael Richardson, Krzysztof Fijalkowski\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1526487292\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781526487292\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Sage Publications Ltd\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/03\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.85lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.10w x 0.60d","brand":"Fran輟is Jullien","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44080678011135,"sku":"9781526487292","price":46.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_8be70663-be2e-4251-9537-bc3632504039.jpg?v=1685488180","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/from-being-to-living-franois-jullien-9781526487292","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
