__________________

The Chinese almanac is not just a cultural legacy but, for millions of readers in much of China and Chinatowns around the world, also a part of modern daily life. From weddings to financial transactions and even travel, the almanac maintains its allure as a daily guide to a wide range of social, professional and family activities. Joanna C. Lee and Ken Smith, co-authors of the Pocket Chinese Almanac (featured frequently in the New York Times), discuss the almanac's roots and its modern applications. Joining them is Kin Man Chan, a professional dai kam (bride's chaperone), taking us on a complete journey from engagement, exchange of betrothal gifts and scheduling for the "big day".
