The book examines the limitations of mainstream psychology, which is rooted in European-American and Judeo-Christian traditions, particularly in relation to Asian and indigenous cultures. It highlights the ongoing transformation of psychological practices to better reflect geographically relevant perspectives. By focusing on Chinese psychology, the work seeks to bridge the divide between Western and Eastern traditions, offering theories grounded in local phenomena and research methods that are culturally appropriate.
