The Taoist Body

Suitable for those interested in China and in religions, this work offers an introduction to the traditions of Taoism and the masters who transmit them. It traces the way that leads from Chinese shamanism and traditional village life to the physical Tending Life techniques, which in turn lead to the mysticism of Lao Tzu and Chuang Tzu.
