Features: This is a serious yet engaging academic work that demonstrates considerable intellectual depth. Readers will see how learned scholars in the field of Redology have been deceived and misled by the fraudster Lishi Zhai over decades, how the seemingly flawless tricks he played were gradually exposed and debunked. The author spent ten years conducting in-depth research, meticulously and convincingly revealing the Zhi editions, Zhi annotations, and Lishi Zhai, while also equally meticulously and convincingly exposing the absurdities and lack of common sense in the New Redology since Hu Shi. The work declares that New Redology is no better than building a tower on sand and is heading toward its downfall.
