The Taoists of Peking, 1800-1949: A Social History of Urban Clerics - Harvard East Asian Monographs
Vincent Goossaert
The author focuses on ordinary religious professionals, most of whom remained obscure temple employees, showing that these Taoists were neither the socially despised illiterates dismissed in so many studies, nor otherworldly ascetics, but active participants in the religious economy of the city.
