Abstract

168 China Review International: Vol. 23, No. 2, 2016 instance, Yang Xiao offers an insightful and thorough analysis of Bellah’s final work, Religion in Human Evolution: From the Paleolithic to the Axial Age (Harvard University Press, 2011) as an expansion of some of his earlier ideas on American civil religion. While this reading of Bellah’s nonreductive humanistic naturalism (p. 186) is convincingly argued and might be of interest to scholars of philosophy, its inclusion in this volume does not do it justice. Minor criticisms aside, however, Confucianism, A Habit of the Heart is an excellent addition to the ever-growing literature on the role of religion in general and Confucianism in particular in contemporary East Asian societies. Ori Tavor Ori Tavor is a lecturer in the Department of East Asian Languages and Civilizations at the University of Pennsylvania, specializing in the study of Chinese religion and philosophy.
