The Religion of Falun Gong is a rare book - it is about a new religious movement, but written with the erudition of a specialist in China's classical language and religious history. It is also attuned to contemporary Chinese realities and draws on Benjamin Penny's own experience in China and with Falun Gong practitioners. Polished and accessible, this enjoyable read is one of the best books available on Falun Gong. (David Palmer, coauthor of The Religious Question in Modern China)
