Provides ample evidence to show that persuasive discourse and rudimentary rhetorical techniques already existed in ancient China e.g. public speeches in Xia dynasty, oracle bone inscriptions in Shang dynasty, public debates about government policies in Han dynasty Explains how the Mandate of Heaven was inscribed at the core of Chinese rhetoric and has guided Chinese thoughts and expressions for centuries Demonstrates Chinese rhetorical wisdom by extracting many concepts and terms related to language expression, persuasive speech, morality and virtue, life and philosophy and so on from great Chinese literary works Many surprising facts are found by the author and revealed in the book
