From the book reviews: "The book, which is in English, represents a serious effort to deal with the Confucian philosophy of ritual, focusing on comparative philosophy between Christian and Chinese Confucian understandings of ritual observance in real life. ... This book is likely to inspire scholars who are interested in ritual to participate and extend the discussion. ... Ritual and the Moral Life has certainly opened a new phase in philosophical studies on ritual." (Hwa Yeong Wang, Philosophy East & West, Vol. 64, January, 2014)
