摘要
In this bold and thought-provoking book Erica Fox Brindley examines an issue long assumed to be a primary point of difference between European cultures and their descendants and the intellectual milieu of early China： the role of the individual. In the past, comparative studies of the individual in China have often assumed a basic distinction on this point, or have taken up one definition of the individual and argued that it did not exist in a particular Chinese context.
