Reviews for Emerson and Neo-Confucianism: Crossing Paths over the Pacific
“Takanashi’s comparative work is detailed and thought-provoking, and the book stands as a welcome contribution toward addressing the importance of neo-Confucian influences on the reception of Asian philosophy in America.” (Leah Kalmanson, Religious Studies Review, Vol. 44 (01), March, 2018)
