Daoism Handbook

Editorial Reviews Book Description Thirty major scholars in the field wrote this new, authoritative guide to the main features and development of Daoism. The chapters are devoted to either specific periods, or topics such as Women in Daoism, Daoism in Korea and Daoist Ritual Music. Each chapter rigidly deals with a fixed set of aspects, such as history, texts, worldview and practices.

Clear markings in the chapters themselves and a detailed index make this volume the most accessible key resource on Daoism past and present. --This text refers to the Hardcover edition.
