Dust jacket notes: "This is the first book to introduce to Western readers the Chinese art of tea, which - unlike its Japanese counterpart - is informal and wholly unrestricted by fixed rules. Besides the long history of tea, told with a wealth of legends, anecdotes and poems, we learn about mountain springs, tea houses and gardens, tea-loving emperors, Taoists, monks, potters, ladies, poets, scholars and many other colorful figures. All the material is taken from Chinese sources or from the author's own experiences during twenty years of roaming throughout the length and breadth of China. His first aim is to give impressions of a beauty now departed. The second is to provide practical instructions for the purchasing and enjoyment of fine teas, and of the lovely ceramic accessories that enrich the experience. There are sections on the innumerable kinds of green, semi-fermented and black teas; tea and the Tao; tea and health; poems and songs of tea; and a manual for practising the tea art. This is a book for lovers of beauty as well as enthusiasts of tea. In these pages Old China lives again."

In Search of the Goddess of Compassion: The Mystical Cult of Kuan Yin

The I Ching, probably the oldest book in existence, provides a system of knowledge that makes it possible to analyze the patterns of changes in life governed by the Immutable Law of Change. Whether we use the I Ching for divination or to study the principles involved with it, if we allow ourselves to be governed by its teachings, we shall enrich the content of our lives, free ourselves from anxiety, and become harmless or even intelligently helpful to others and pleasant companions to ourselves. This translation of the I Ching has been especially prepared for practical use in divination. It is easier to use than any previous version, and the language is closer to that of the Chinese original.

A highly practical form of mysticism, Mahayana Buddhism offers precise techniques for attaining wisdom by negating the ego and entering the bliss of divinity. This book gives the background, techniques, purpose, and underlying theory of the Tantric forms of meditation, which have often been successful for those who have failed to make progress with more familiar methods.
