This book explores the intellectual history of contract law in ancient China by employing archaeological and empirical methodologies. Divided into five chapters, it begins by reviewing the origin of the contract in ancient China, and analyzing its name, primary form, historical premise and functions. The second chapter discusses free will and lawfulness in the establishment of a contract, offering insights into the impact of contracts on social justice. In turn, the third chapter addresses the inner core of the contract: validity and liability. This allows readers at all levels to identify the similarities and differences between contracts from different eras and different parts of the world, which will also benefit those pursuing comparative research in related fields. Chapters four and five offer a philosophical exploration of contract history in ancient China, and analyze key aspects including human nature and ethical justice.

Huang-Lao thought, a unique and sophisticated political philosophy which combines elements of Daoism and Legalism, dominated the intellectual life of late Warring States and Early Han China, providing the ideological foundation for post-Qin reforms. In the absence of extant texts, however, scholars of classical Chinese philosophy remained in the dark about this important school for over 2000 years. Finally, in 1973, archaeologists unearthed four ancient silk scrolls: the Silk Manuscripts of Huang-Lao. This work is the first detailed, book-length treatment in English of these lost treasures.

Amazingly, almost all Fortune 500 companies have a business presence in China. This phenomenon indisputably demonstrates that China has now become the center of global attention. Yet many foreign businessmen and lawyers still feel discomfort about Chinese law and the legal system that they will encounter in their business dealings with China. Issues that must be dealt with for foreign parties doing business in China include, among others, whether China has a sound legal system, whether private interests will be protected effectively under the socialist system of China, and whether a contract will be honored and enforced in China. Additional questions arise: How are contracts treated and handled differently from what we do at home? How is the doctrine of freedom of contract being accepted in China? What contract theories are there in China? How do we make a contract with Chinese counterparts? Could the law of our country be applied to a contract involving China? What remedies will be available in case of breach of contract? How will a judgment or arbitral award be enforced in China? The book offers a comprehensive analysis on Chinese Contract Law both in theory and in practice. It discusses the issues surrounding the process of contract formation, performance and remedies for breach, and addresses the doctrines underlying the law of contract. The issue-oriented format and comparative mechanism employed in the book are intended to provide an inside view of Chinese Contract Law and its application in the people's courts. Efforts are made to discuss different solutions to the above issues based on the nature of particular fact patterns. The purpose of the book is to help "catch the cubs by boldly entering into the lair of tiger". The book begins with a review of the legislative history of contract law in China, and then moves onto an analysis of the Chinese nature of contracts. With a focus on the 1999 Contract Law of China, the book covers such subjects as formation of contracts, defenses to the formation of contracts, performance of contracts, assignment, breach and remedies, as well as third parties. The last chapter of the book has a special concentration on international contracts.

This book presents a unique approach for studying mechanisms and machines with drawings that were depicted unclearly in ancient Chinese books. The historical, cultural and technical backgrounds of the mechanisms are explained, and various mechanisms described and illustrated in ancient books are introduced. By utilizing the idea for the conceptual design of modern mechanisms, all feasible designs of ancient mechanisms with uncertain members and joints that meet the technical standards of the subjects’ time periods are synthesized systematically. Ancient Chinese crossbows (the original crossbow and repeating crossbows), textile mechanisms (silk-reeling mechanism, spinning mechanisms, and looms), and many other artisan's tool mechanisms are used as illustrated examples. Such an approach provides a logical method for the reconstruction designs of ancient mechanisms with uncertain structures. It also provides an innovative direction for researchers to further identify the original structures of mechanisms and machines with drawings in ancient literature. This book can be used as a textbook and/or supplemental reading material for courses related to history of ancient (Chinese) machinery and creative mechanism design for senior and graduate students.

This book offers a new narrative and interpretative framework about the origins of moral-political philosophy that tracks how the three core normative values, humaneness, justice, and personal freedom, were formulated, reformulated, and contested by early Chinese philosophers in their effort to negotiate the relationship among three distinct domains, the personal, the familial, and the political. Such efforts took place as those thinkers were reimagining a new moral-political order, debating its guiding norms, and exploring possible sources within the context of an evolving understanding of He
