Features: Since the 1980s, Cheng Chung-ying has frequently visited mainland China for lectures and academic exchanges, becoming a well-known contemporary scholar in the domestic academic circles. Some of his works have been published in the Chinese academic field. The four-volume Collected Works of Cheng Chung-ying is the most comprehensive compilation of his academic writings to date. Unfortunately, due to various reasons, the collection primarily includes his monographs and papers published in Chinese, with a significant number of his English works excluded.
Volume 1 On the Spirit of Chinese and Western Philosophy: This volume includes Cheng Chung-ying's monograph The Choice at the Turn of the Century: On the Convergence and Integration of Chinese and Western Philosophy (the main part) and ten other articles. The articles can be divided into three groups: (1) The characteristics of Chinese philosophy; (2) The characteristics of Western philosophy; (3) A comparison of Chinese and Western philosophy.
Volume 2 Confucianism and Neo-Confucianism: This collection consists entirely of papers, including major works by Cheng Chung-ying on the historical development, theoretical characteristics, and future trends of Confucianism and modern Neo-Confucianism. It comprehensively presents Cheng Chung-ying's views on Confucianism and modern Neo-Confucianism. The articles can be divided into three groups: (1) Studies on the thought and theories of key figures in the development of Confucianism and modern Neo-Confucianism; (2) The main fields and fundamental theoretical characteristics of Confucianism and modern Neo-Confucianism; (3) The contemporary significance and future trends of Confucianism.
Volume 3 Ethics and Management: This volume includes Cheng Chung-ying's monograph C Theory – I Ching Philosophy of Management, which applies the cultural philosophy of ontological hermeneutics to "ethics" and "management" to infuse value ideals into modern society and life, along with eight other papers.

Volume 4 Ontological Hermeneutics: This collection consists entirely of papers, including twenty-five articles by Cheng Chung-ying that explain the basic theories of ontological hermeneutics and analyze Chinese and Western philosophy within the framework of ontological hermeneutics.
