Features: The purpose of editing this series of books is to save readers' time, allowing them to gain more knowledge in a shorter period. In the era of information explosion, there is too much to learn. Tutoring has become a frequent need. If one is not good at tutoring, picking up bits here and there, patching up this today and that tomorrow, the results may not be very good. If reading is treated like taking medicine, one may also lose the and joy that should come with reading. Each book in this series is concise in length. Even if readers read them carefully and savor them slowly, they won't spend much time, and they can fully enjoy the pleasure of reading. If they are taken as medicine, they are small in dose, easy to take, and easy to digest. In the half-century since traditional etymology was interrupted, it was the contemporary etymology master, Mr. Lu Zongda, who first stood up to call for its revival. A Brief Introduction to Etymology introduces the young generation, who have not been exposed to etymology, to this ancient and useful discipline with its popular language, accurate explanations, and a serious yet relaxed tone, guiding them into the hall of this timeless field.
