Recenzje

"In this deeply personal book, philosopher Amy Olberding brilliantly shows how ancient Confucians can help us to grasp the centrality of manners and civility to good lives today. The Wrongness of Rudeness has important lessons for anyone who has ever struggled to be polite — or wondered whether it's worth the bother." — Stephen C. Angle, Mansfield Freeman Professor of East Asian Studies, Wesleyan University
