Ott also develops far-reaching possibilities of an embodied philosophy. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe embodied understanding did not go unchallenged in Ancient China. There were important counter-currents, most notably the Mohists and the so-called Legalists. It has been argued that this challenge set the Chinese philosophical tradition in motion. By using embodiment theory Ott demonstrates how these ideas can be seen as a decontextualizing tendency of thought that plays an important role in human affairs.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMargus Ott\u003c\/b\u003e is a researcher at Tallinn University, Estonia.
