Michael Lackner, Dr. phil. (1983), University of Munich, is Professor of Chinese at the University of Erlangen-Nuremberg. He has published monographs, edited volumes and many articles on Chinese intellectual history, including Coping with the Future. Theories and Practices of Divination in East Asia (Brill, 2018). Zhao Lu, Dr. phil. (2013), University of Pennsylvania, is Assistant Professor of Global China Studies at New York University Shanghai. Working on Chinese intellectual and cultural history, he is the author of In Pursuit of the Great Peace (SUNY, 2019) and the coauthor (with Brandon Dotson and Constance Cook) of Dice and Gods on the Silk Road (Brill, 2021).

"The volume is well organized, thoughtfully introduced, and contains several massive and highly authoritative contributions that may serve as the starting point for new comparativist or sinological research. It also includes brief papers (Clart; Bokenkamp; Homola) that may interest undergraduates on their way into Chinese religion." – Barbara Hendrischke, Religious Studies Review 48.3 (September 2022)
