The definitive guide to understanding Taoism--no matter
your background or faith
Lao Tzu's Tao Te Ching is the second most translated book
in the world, and the practice of religious Taoism is on the rise
in China, where adherents currently number in the hundreds of
millions. Yet there remains a remarkable lack of reliable
information about Taoism for curious westerners. Taoism For
Dummies provides comprehensive coverage of Taoism's origins in
China's Chou Dynasty, its underlying quietist principles, its
emergence as a major religion, various interpretation of its core
texts, including both Eastern and Western interpretations, key
Taoist concepts, and much more. It also provides a fascinating
glimpse of Taoism in contemporary China.
* The ideal guide for readers interested in this influential
religion, as well as those taking an introductory course on Taoism
or Chinese Religion
* A valuable source of insight for those with an interest in
modern Chinese culture and beliefs
