Publish Date: 2001-01-01
Features: This is the third volume of the "Peking University Lectures" series, featuring outstanding speeches by Daisaku Ikeda, Zhou Ruchang, Zhang Qizhi, Dai Jinhua, Tan Peisheng, Tang Xiaodu, Wang Yuanchuan, Rong Weiwei, Li Qiang, Li Yining, Ning Sao, Wen Yuankai, Wang Jiancheng, and others. This is a book that was not easily obtained. To make a simple thing happen, the main lecturer meticulously reviewed every word of the text. Without the encouragement and support of the teachers, and the united efforts of all colleagues, the publication of this book would not have been possible. As editors, we are truly honored to record and share the "thoughts" of these teachers with the readers. The tradition of lectures has long existed at Peking University. During President Cai Yuanpei's tenure, his educational philosophy of "inclusive and diverse" attracted countless cultural figures, leading to the flourishing of lecture series and establishing the excellent tradition of Peking University's pursuit of freedom and exploration of truth over the past century.
