The book explores the distinctive nature of Chinese philosophy, emphasizing its divergence from Western theological concerns such as cosmology and divine forces. Unlike Plato and Aristotle, who incorporate metaphysical elements like the prime mover and demiurge, Chinese philosophers focus less on explicit theological discussions. While the concept of Heaven (Shangdi/Tian) exists, it is approached more as a naturalistic principle rather than a central theme, reflecting a unique philosophical evolution during the classical period.
