Introducing Chinese Religions is the ideal starting point for
students exploring the fascinating religious traditions of China.
This introduction covers the whole spectrum of Chinese religious
history, from the multi-faceted religious heritage of pre-modern
China, to the practice of different religions in China today, as
well as the spread and influence of Chinese religions throughout
the world.
Mario Poceski, an experienced teacher of Chinese religions,
explores the three main traditions of Buddhism, Confucianism and
Daoism, as well as the development of Western and popular religions
in the region, such as Christianity and Islam. The book introduces
students to the richness and diversity of Chinese religious life,
pointing out mutual influences and intersections of the religions
of the region, and how they interact with other elements of Chinese
culture and society, including politics, literature and art.
Illustrated throughout, the book also includes text boxes,
summary charts, a glossary and a list of further reading to aid
students understanding and revision. The accompanying website for
