The intellectual contributions of the Han (206 BCECE 220) have for too long received short shrift in introductory anthologies of Chinese thought. It was during the Han's unprecedented centurieslong unification of China that a canon of classical texts emerged, syncretic and scholastic trends transformed the legacy of preimperial philosophy, and popular religious movements shook official verities. With Mark Csikszentmihalyi's collection, readers at last have an accessible, eclectic introduction to the key themes of thought during this crucial period. Providing clear introductory essays and elegant, readable translations, Csikszentmihalyi exercises a judicious revisionism by breaking down stereotypes of philosophical orthodoxy and offering a subtler vision of crossfertilization in thought. His juxtaposition of texts that reflect very different social milieux and their problems gives a more vivid picture of the Han than has ever before been available in an Englishlanguage collection. The result is a work that should by rights be required reading in intellectual history courses for years to come. David Schaberg, University of California, Los Angeles
