Book Description:

Often considered more a philosophy or system of social ethics than a religion, Confucianism has its roots in ancient China. Although today, under the Communist Chinese government, Confucianism is officially outlawed, its moral ideals and emphasis on universal education have helped it retain its influence both in Asia and around the world.
