It is also quite possibly the best single study ever written anywhere of the life, thought and career of a pre-1800 Chinese scholar-official . . . .This is a brilliant picture of the world of a major Chinese thinker and bureaucrat in the 1700s . . . .[It is] must reading for anyone interested in the thought and practices of Chinese politics after 1700."--Pacific Affairs "Whatever doubts may remain regarding the phrase "early modernity" or how well Chen Hongmou represented the mainstream of eighteenth-century bureaucratic thinking, historians of China owe a debt to Rowe for sharing his stunning research talents with us in this impressive piece of scholarship."--Harvard Journal of Asiatic Studies
