Book Summary of Illustrated Library of World Knowledge (4 Vol.)

This book is an effort to put Asia on the map of the western world. It is in part a record of impressions and reflections during ten years spent in the countries with which it deals. The Author believes that there is enough material to provide an introduction to the culture of three great civilizations of India, China and Japan. These three civilizations of asia have a proud place in the family of nations, and certain cultural unity underlines their deep differences. According to the author, India is mystical and metaphysical China is rationalist and humanist, and Japan is at once utilitarian and poetical. All have element of mysticism and of deep aesthetic and poetic genius, and all have produced men of action as well as men of vision. The contribution of these three great civilizations to the world heritage can not be ignored. ISBN
