Yu Ying-shih's Between the Heaven and the Human-An Exploration into Origin of the Chinese Mind in Classical Antiquity is an important book to explore the origin of Chinese culture and Chinese thought. In addition to the influence of Karl Jaspers, Talcott Parsons and Max Weber, the book, mainly the methods and contents, is influenced by Hu Shih's Shuo Ru (說儒), and is in a sense a continuation of the Shuo Ru. Of course, to understand the correlation or the inheritance between them, it is necessary to re-understand the status of Shuo Ru in the academic history and the ideological history, especially to understand Hu Shih's realistic solicitudes and cultural appeals under the circumstances of the national crisis.
