Chinese Religion in Contemporary Singapore, Malaysia and Taiwan: 
The Cult of the Two Grand Elders
 -
 Fabian Graham

The author, an academic based in Singapore, wanders into the prevalent, but not very public,  underworld of demons and their role in Chinese religion, particularly in Malaysia and Singapore. Rather than being shunned they are venerated members of the Buddhist, Taoist and popular traditions that have built up in the community. He contrasts these beliefs with those practiced by Chinese in Taiwan. New Paperback. Reprint. Originally published in 2020. 259 pages with an appendix of Chinese names, references, an index and some black and white and colour photographs.
