Providing the best surviving evidence of the everyday thinking of
the Sung upper class, Yuan Ts'ai's twelfth-century manual is the
advice of a typical educated man on the concerns of managing a
family, from rearing children and arranging their marriages, to
avoiding social conflict, training servants, and managing property
and preserving it for the next generation. Originally published in
1984. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand
technology to again make available previously out-of-print books
from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press.
These editions preserve the original texts of these important books
while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions.
The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase
access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of
books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in
1905.
