His literary style is characterized by clarity and precision, utilizing rich descriptions and insightful analyses, which allow readers to grasp the complexities of Chinese civilization.

His extensive fieldwork and academic pursuits, including his tenure as a professor at Cambridge University, informed his deep appreciation for the nuances of Chinese thought and traditions.

Giles'Äô scholarly approach, paired with his engaging narrative style, makes this book a thought-provoking journey into the heart of Chinese identity, making it essential reading for historians, students, and enthusiasts of cultural studies.
