"The first chapter of this book introduces the emergence, historical evolution and characteristics of Chinese civilization; the second chapter introduces the knowledge pedigree of Chinese civilization, which is characterized by human-centered and historical and social practice; chapter three introduces the value pedigree of Chinese civilization with ethics and responsibility as the core; Chapter 4 introduces the national governance system of Chinese civilization in selecting and appointing talents; Chapter 5 introduces China's self-organization of mutual assistance and mutual benefit; Chapter 6 discusses the relationship between Chinese civilization and world civilization in the new era. Since entering the 21st century, China's economic aggregate and political influence have increased day by day. However, for a long time, the Western world's view of China has been full of various prejudices and misunderstandings which are produced by the ignorance of the history and current situation of Chinese civilization.

"Western civilization has entered a new fundamental crisis that can be explained by a very one-sided orientation of social values based on materialism and egocentrism, which is disrupting the delicate balance between the opposing forces of 'mind' and 'matter', and of 'I' and 'the others'. Many sources - from the great works of philosophy, religion, art and culture to social surveys and the course of history - qualify sustainability as the dynamic equilibrium between fundamental opposing forces. This insight and the ethical ability to better discriminate between stabilizing and destabilizing forces would allow further justification of human rights and new institutional arrangements in society at large and, in particular, in politics, economy and finance. It would enable a sustainable civilization to flourish within the boundaries of freedom and human dignity"--

Attention is given to the ecological concept of metabolism, human metabolic relationships & the notion of metabolic rifts, bee communication, & the role of capitalism in global ecological degradation.
