The book Becoming Human: Li Zehou's Ethics offers a critical introduction and in-depth analysis of Li Zehou's moral philosophy and ethics. Li Zehou, who is one of the most influential contemporary Chinese philosophers, believes that ethics is the most important philosophical discipline. He aims to revive, modernize, develop, and complement Chinese traditional ethics through what he calls "transformative creation" (轉化性的創造). He takes Chinese ethics, which represents the main pillar of Chinese philosophy, as a vital basis for his elaborations on certain aspects of Kant's, Marx's and other Western theoreticians' thoughts on ethics, and hopes to contribute in this way to the development of a new global ethics for all of humankind.
