The core of his synthesis was moral and social philosophy, but it also included knowledge about the natural world. His doctrine of ke-wu (invest. of things) made him mindful of the specialized knowledged in such \"scientific\" traditions as astronomy, harmonics, med., etc. This study of Chu Hsi's thought gives a systematic account of the basic concepts of his natural philosophy. Also discusses Chu Hsi's actual knowledge about the natural world. And examines the relation between Chu Hsi and Chinese \"scientific\" traditions and compares his natural knowledge with that of the Western scientific tradition.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Yung Sik Kim\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 087169235X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780871692351\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e American Philosophical Society Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/01\/2000\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 380\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.98lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.00h x 7.00w x 0.88d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eReference and Research Bk News\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/01\/2001 pg. 2","brand":"Yung Sik Kim","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47419118551295,"sku":"9780871692351","price":60.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_0aa7bf2e-3918-4fb7-8d27-aaa8f5934ae5.jpg?v=1761509562","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/natural-philosophy-of-chu-hsi-yung-sik-kim-9780871692351","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
