Review:
"In sum, this is an extremely rich collection of essays. As the editors of the volume put it, this collection of essays 'bears witness to the huge advances that the study of Chinese culture has made since the 1970s, when [Wilt Idema] started his career' (p.1). Having benefitted from Idema's impressive scholarship both as a reader and as a long-distance student of his, I can understand why he inspired so extensive a Festschrift." - JIE GUO, University of South Carolina, in: MCLC Resource Center Publication (October 2010)
