Abstract	"This book traced the historical background of liberal arts education from west to east, expounded its implication and fundamental goal of universities, introduced its application in Western and Chinese universities, particularly its experimentation at University of Nottingham Ningbo China. It takes the University of Nottingham Ningbo China as an example to introduce readers to the achievements and shortcomings of British education in the process of implementing liberal arts education. The author summarised the five elements of liberal arts education, i.e. "Bo": integration of arts and sciences, cross-discipline, seeking in-depth knowledge on the basis of extensive learning, understanding the new and gaining a wide knowledge of the old; "Ya": Human beings first, professionals second; being committed to student-centred idea, prioritizing education among all work; encouraging questioning; A very abundant organized extra-curriculum classes. This book will appeal to anyone who is interested in liberal arts education and the comparison between Western and Chinese education. It advocates that in order to meet the needs of all aspects of society, the structure of China's education must be diversified for the realization of the China dream. This book will appeal to teachers and students, educators, and readers interested in education"--Provided by publisher.
