 | | As an adoptee, I think denying the existence of the child's culture is nonsense. | | | There's no pat answer for how much culture is the right amount. | | | After many years of knowing Lori and her family, she told me one day that she was from Czechoslovakia and that her real (first) name was Anna. |

| | This division, however, does not mean or even imply that Daoist thought occurred only in ancient times, that religious communities appeared only in the early middle ages, or that spiritual practices were the prerogatives of the Tang and Song dynasties. | | | In particular, numerous scholarly studies published in French, German, Chinese, and Japanese are not listed here even though they have been essential in developing the field of Daoist studies and in shaping my own understanding of the religion. | | | This, again, does not imply that other works are not important or have not influenced the presentation of Daoism in this volume. |
