Entering the Seven Spaces of Leadership
Nan Huai-Chin is a teacher and scholar famous in China but little know outside of China and Taiwan. He has written over 30 books, which have sold literally tens of millions of copies in China, mostly on the black market until recently. Few of his books have been translated and made available outside China. He is an advisor to the government as well as a noted spiritual figure. Today, it is not unusual to find whole sections of bookstores in China devoted to his works.

When I visited Master Nan he had just finished a new interpretation of one of the two Confucian classics, "The Great Learning."

The fundamental problem
