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, thousands of
titles published on the subject, countless websites devoted to it
and millions of users. In this book Ole Bruun explains Feng Shui's
Chinese origins and meanings as well as its more recent Western
interpretations and global appeal. Unlike the abundance of popular
manuals, his Introduction treats Chinese Feng Shui as an academic
subject, bridging religion, history and sociology. Individual
chapters explain: - the Chinese religious-philosophical background
- Chinese uses in rural and urban areas - the history of Feng
Shui's reinterpretation in the West - environmental perspectives
and other issues
