Recently discovered ancient silk and bamboo manuscripts have reformulated our understanding of ancient Chinese thought. They show that ancient Chinese philosophy was and is much richer and more complex than we ever imagined, and they chart the path from belief in powerful spirits and gods to the discovery of universal laws and order.

Zhongjiang Wang is Professor in the Department of Philosophy at Peking University, China. His research focuses on Chinese philosophy. He is the author of Civilization of Bamboo-Silk and the Word of Ancient Thought (in Chinese).Misha Tadd is a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Peking University Institute for Advanced Humanistic Studies under Tu Weiming. He studies Han dynasty Daoism.
