Features: A nation's studies are the source from which a family stands. I have heard that in a world of competition, relying solely on national studies is not enough to establish a nation; yet I have never heard of a nation being able to stand on its own without the rise of its national studies. I have heard of nations that perished yet their national studies did not perish, but I have never heard of a nation still standing without the rise of its national studies. Therefore, the current lack of rise in national studies will inevitably affect the survival of the nation, which is not as severe as in the past! This book introduces readers to content such as the Shangshu and Chunqiu from the pre-Qin period, the "Three Commentaries," the return to Han studies, Sima Qian and the Zizhi Tongjian, and more.
