Daoism in the Twentieth Century: Between Eternity and Modernity (New Perspectives on Chinese Culture and Society)
“This pioneering work not only explores the ways in which Daoism was able to adapt and reinvent itself during China’s modern era, but sheds new light on how Daoism helped structure the development of Chinese religious culture. The authors also demonstrate Daoism’s role as a world religion, particularly in terms of emigration and identity. The book’s sophisticated approach transcends previous debates over how to define the term ‘Daoism,’ and should help inspire a new wave of research on Chinese religious movements.”--Paul R. Katz, Academia Sinica, Taiwan
