Paul d'Ambrosio and Hans-Georg Moeller have recently published Genuine Pretending - the Philosophy of the Zuangzhi 2017. Paul d'Ambrosio, originally from Ireland, has published a great range of books on Chinese philosophy, several from perspectives of European philosophy from existentialism and Hegel to Michael Sandel.
