“In this perceptive biography, Guy S. Alitto gives Liang the attention he deserves in his own right and adds substantially to our understanding of the range of motives that impelled men to intellectual commitment and social engagement in China’s chaotic republican decades… This is a history of ideas being lived. It should be required reading for serious students of modern China.” - American Historical Review

“Another very substantial contribution to American scholarship on the roots of Chinese communism as well as a major study of a critical phase of contemporary Chinese intellectual history.” - History
