Review:
'A welcome study in East Asian religions. Using the works of T'ang poets and the early tenth century hagiographical account of the Taoist master Tu Kuang-t'ing, it examines the Queen Mother of the West, the greatest Taoist goddess of the T'ang dynasty ... Through its inscriptions, historical references, poetic excerpts, and pictorial arts, this book provides a penetrating insight into the religion and culture of the T'ang people.' Choice
