Know about the book -
Theoretical Knowledge in the Mohist Canon is written by Matthias Schemmel and published by Springer Nature. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 3031087976 (ISBN 10) and 9783031087974 (ISBN 13).
This open access book presents a new translation, interpretation and analysis of selected passages from the so-called Mohist Canon, a Chinese text from ca. 300 BCE, and discusses the role of the text in the world history of science, arguing that it represents an early emergence of theoretical, systematized knowledge that is independent from parallel developments in ancient Greece. It is aimed at historians of science, of knowledge and of philosophy, and generally at readers interested in these topics from an intercultural perspective and particularly with respect to China.
