Cai Yuanpei: Selected Writings on Education traces the evolution and revolution of Chinese modern education in the early twentieth century initiated by Cai Yuanpei (1868-1940), the first Minister of Education of Republic of China, Father of Peking University and Founder of Academia Sinica. This book interprets Cai Yuanpei’s spirit of “freedom of thought and academic inclusiveness” through his own words from his political, social and academic endeavors. Cai Yuanpei navigated the then Chinese education through the interactions between tradition and revolution, between the East and the West, setting the cornerstone of Chinese modern education system. His innovative ideology remains significant over the Chinese education reforms in the 21st century.
