Media Reviews
This book is awesome. It reads clearly and fluently. The topics of the chapters make sense; the arguments are convincing and well-supported. The authors are thoroughly conversant with the fields of Daoist studies, Chinese history, and women's studies... This book has no rival. It should instantly become a standard. - Susan Cahill, University of California, San Diego
