Features: This book is a teaching material compiled for the undergraduate course "History of Chinese Philosophy" in philosophy programs. Since its official publication, Chinese society, culture, and academic research have undergone significant changes and developments. By the late 1990s, it became evident that the book needed to be revised again. Due to the involvement of some veteran experts from our institution in the writing and revision of the book, it has the characteristics of relatively comprehensive historical materials, clear analysis, and concise narration. Therefore, the main focus of this revision is to retain these contents and maintain these features while striving to eliminate and correct outdated analytical frameworks and terminology in the original textbook. This ensures that the revised edition can meet the teaching needs of the new era while becoming a practical, clear, reliable, and widely applicable textbook on the history of Chinese philosophy.
