My reasons, and my suggestions for Chinese philosophy study, while I believe that its study should have been required in certain narrow advanced military and diplomatic circles, would be totally different from those of the author targeted for the average university liberal arts curriculum, and have nothing to do with the author's alleged need for more views of color in American university curricula.
They are contained throughout this blog, here and there.
One has only to scrutinize Michael Pillsbury's book The Hundred Year Marathon to witness the spectacle of an ostensibly old China hand confessing to having been hoodwinked by China for virtually his entire professional career in government.
How much more likely would it not be for naive American liberal arts undergrads to be similarly hoodwinked by so called Chinese philosophy?
