Vietnamese supernaturalism : views from the southern region

"Popular religion in southern Vietnam is often regarded as an indefinable mix of many different beliefs, meanings and symbols with little pattern or explanation. In contrast, this book highlights that the beliefs and practices of the Vietnamese can be discerned through four distinct, yet overlapping, spheres and that the varing attitudes which exist towards the spirit world are a direct result of unique historical and environmental circumstances."
