The study contrasts popular Western manuals with an academic perspective, emphasizing its historical significance and reinterpretation over the past 150 years. Through anthropological fieldwork in two rural areas, the author provides insights into contemporary fengshui practices, highlighting its relevance in addressing local beliefs and challenges.
