About the Author:
Joel S. Kahn is Emeritus Professor of Anthropology at La Trobe University, Australia, and a Professorial Fellow (Honorary) at the Asia Institute, The University of Melbourne, Australia.
Review:
“This book provides a unique and Creative thesis about which scholars of Asia would do well to think critically in their studies of religion and culture and in reconsidering their methodologies. ... I imagine a broad audience would find it inaccessible. Therefore this book is recommended for Asian studies and religious studies scholars interested in the theoretical questions relevant to their disciplines.” (Brooke Schedneck, SOJOURN - Journal of Social Issues in Southeast Asia, Vol. 32 (1), February, 2017)
