Synopsis:
Sale edition. This is a serious academic introduction and study of Feng Shui, explaining its Chinese origins and meanings as well as its more recemt Western interpretations and global appeal.
Feng Shui has been known in the West for the last 150 years but has mostly been regarded as a primitive superstition. During the modern period successive regimes in China have suppressed its practice. However, in the last few decades Feng Shui has become a global spiritual movement with professional associations, with thousands of titles published on the subject, countless websites devoted to it and millions of users. However, unlike the abundance of popular mass market manuals, this introduction treats Feng Shui seriously - bridging religion, history and sociology. Individual chapters explain the Chinese religious and philosophical background, Chinese uses in rural and urban areas, the history of Feng Shui's interpretation in the West, environmental perspectives and other issues. |
