A section on Chan / Zen and excerpts from the writings of Ge Hong, representing the central concerns of Daoism, are included.

A section on modern China includes a poem written by Mao, exhibiting his Daoist sensibilities.

A revised chapter on Buddhism presents the voices of modern Buddhist writers, including the Dalai Lama.

Throughtout the volume, reflections on the role of women in Eastern religions, as well as women's voices themselves, are added.
